Battery life and the number of 
images that can be recorded/
played back
The tables show approximate guidelines 
for the length of time the camera can be 
used when picture quality is set to 
Standard, when you shoot in Flash mode 
, and when you shoot in Normal mode 
in an environment where the ambient 
temperature is 25°C (77°F), and the 
supplied Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries 
are fully charged.  The guidelines for the 
number of images that can be recorded or 
played back allow for changing the 
“Memory Stick” as necessary. Actual 
results may differ slightly from these, 
depending on the conditions of use.
