Number of images and battery
life that can be recorded/
viewed
The tables show the approximate number
of images and the battery life that can be
recorded/viewed when you shoot images in
normal mode with a fully charged battery
pack (supplied) at a temperature of 25°C
(77°F). The numbers of images that can
be recorded or viewed take into account
changing the “Memory Stick Duo” as
necessary. Note that the actual numbers
may be less than indicated depending on
the conditions of use.
• The battery capacity decreases as the number
of uses increases and over time (page 119).
