CHECKING THE REMAINING
BATTERY PACK CHARGE
When using the battery pack, the remaining battery pack charge can be
checked on the LCD monitor. Make sure to check this indicator before
capturing an image. For an indication of the possible length of time for battery
pack operation, see page 33.
1 Display the Recording Menu or
Playback Menu (page 48).
hThe battery pack remaining
charge indicator appears in the
lower right corner of the LCD
monitor.
h Due to the battery pack
characteristics, when the
ambient temperature is low,
may appear early for an
incorrect indication of the
remaining charge.
Also, depending on the
conditions of use of the camera
or the ambient conditions
(temperature, etc.), the indicated
remaining charge may change.
Therefore, this indication can
only be used as a general
approximation of the remaining
charge.
h When the battery charge is low,
the battery pack remaining
charge indicator also appears on
the screen during recording.
