Charging time and recordable time
The times shown in the tables below are for when 
the temperature is 25
oC (77 oF) and the humidity 
is 60%. If the temperature is higher or lower than 
25
oC (77 oF), the charging time will become 
longer.
A Charging time
B Maximum continuously recordable time
C Actual recordable time
(
The actual recordable time refers to the 
recordable time on tape when repeatedly starting/
stopping recording, turning the unit on/off, moving 
the zoom lever etc.) 
“1 h 40 min” indicates 1 hour 40 minutes.
≥The battery CGR-DU06 is supplied.
≥The charging time and recordable time shown in 
the table are approximations. The times indicate 
the recordable time when the viewfinder is used. 
The times in parentheses indicate the 
recordable time when the LCD monitor is used.
≥We recommend the Battery Pack CGA-DU12 
and CGA-DU21 for long recording time (2 hours 
or more for continuous recording, 1 hour or 
more for actual recording).
≥The actual time may become shorter than this. 
The recordable time shown in the table are 
approximations. The recordable time will 
become shorter in the following cases:
≥When you use both the viewfinder and the 
LCD monitor simultaneously while rotating the 
LCD monitor frontward to record yourself, etc.
≥The batteries heat up after use or charging. The 
main unit of the Camcorder being used will also 
heat up. This is normal.
≥Along with the reduction of the battery capacity, 
the display will change: 
 
 
 
 
. If the battery 
discharges, then 
 (
) will flash.
