Charging time and recordable time
The times shown in the table below show the 
times at a temperature of 68
oF (25oC) and a 
humidity of 60%. This is just a guide. If the 
temperature is higher or lower than the specified 
value, the charging time will become longer.
A Charging time
B Maximum continuously recordable time
“1h. 10 min.” indicates 1 hour 10 minutes.
≥The battery CGR-DU06 is supplied.
≥The times shown in the table are rough 
estimates. 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 hour 
or more for continuous recording, 1 hour or 
more for intermittent recording).
≥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, 
0 Lux MagicPix function, etc.
≥When you use this Camcorder with the LCD 
monitor lit up by pressing the [POWER LCD] 
button.
≥The batteries heat up after use or charging. The 
Camcorder being used will also heat up. This is 
normal.
≥Along with the reduction of the battery capacity, 
the display will change: 
# s # 
# u # v. If the battery 
discharges, then 
u (v) will flash.
