43lRecordable time with fully chargedbattery pack (with no zoomoperation, etc.)For your reference, the approximate DVD VideoCamera recordable time with fully charged batterypack:VDR-M53PP/ VDR-M55PP [with model CGA-DU07A]VDR-M75PP [with model CGA-DU07A]VDR-M95PP [with model CGA-DU14A]The time is only for reference. It varies depending onrecording contents.Continuous Recording (without zoom):The continuous recording time of DVD VideoCamera in the left table shows the availablerecording time when the DVD Video Camera is inthe recording mode without using any other functionafter recording is started. In actual recording, thebattery pack will discharge 2-3 times faster than thisreference since the REC button and zoom are beingoperated, and playback is performed. Assume thatthe recordable time with a fully charged batterypack is between 1/2 and 1/3 of the time in the lefttable, and prepare the type and number of batteriesto allow for the time you are planning to record onthe DVD Video Camera.Note that the battery pack discharges faster in coldplaces.lThe time taken for charging thebattery pack is as follows[at 77 °F (25 °C)]Note :• See page 157 when charging is not possible.• The charge time will vary depending on the remainingbattery level.• During and after charging, the battery pack will be warm,but this does not indicate a fault.• If the following phenomena appear, the battery packmay be dead: Replace it.- Charging does not start within 10 seconds (theCHARGE indicator does not light).- The battery pack cannot be charged up to 75% if morethan 9 hours have elapsed after charging started.- The battery pack cannot be fully charged if more than5 hours have elapsed after it was charged to 75%.• Charge the battery pack at ambient temperature 50°F to86°F (10°C to 30°C). Charging at temperatures otherthan this range could damage the battery pack.XTRA When using viewfinder approx. 85 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 70 minFINE When using viewfinder approx. 85 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 70 minSTD When using viewfinder approx. 100 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 85 minXTRA When using viewfinder approx. 70 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 60 minFINE When using viewfinder approx. 70 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 60 minSTD When using viewfinder approx. 80 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 70 minXTRA When using viewfinder approx. 125 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 110 minFINE When using viewfinder approx. 125 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 110 minSTD When using viewfinder approx. 140 minWhen using LCD monitor approx. 125 minCGA-DU07A CGA-DU14A90 min 165 min
