Recording still pictures
Recording conditions by CIPA standard
CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera & Imaging Products Association].
Temperature: 23 oC (73.4 oF)/Humidity: 50%RH when monitor is on.
Using a Panasonic SD Memory Card.
Using the supplied battery.
Starting recording 30 seconds after the camera is turned on.
(When the Optical Image Stabiliser function is set to [ON].)
Recording once every 30 seconds using full flash every second recording.
Changing the zoom magnification from Tele to Wide or vice versa in every recording.
Turning the camera off every 10 recordings and leaving it until the temperature of the battery 
decreases.
The number of recordable pictures varies depending on the recording interval time. As 
the recording interval time becomes longer, the number of recordable pictures 
decreases.
[For example, if you were to take one picture every two minutes, then the number of 
pictures would be reduced to approximately one-quarter of the number of pictures given 
above (based upon one picture taken every 30 seconds).]
