Battery life and memory capacity
Battery life and number of images you can record/view
The numbers shown in the following tables
assume a fully charged battery pack
(supplied) is used at an ambient
temperature of 25°C (77°F). The numbers
shown for images you can record/view are
approximations and allow for changing of
the "Memory Stick Duo" media as
necessary.
Note that the actual numbers may be less
than those indicated in the table depending
on the conditions of use.
