12 Charging, Recording and Playback TimesBelow times are approximate and vary according to the charging, recording orplayback conditions.* Approximate times for recording with repeated operations such as start/stop,zooming, power on/off. Actual time may be shorter. We recommend charging the battery pack in temperatures between 10 °C and30 °C (50 °F and 86 °F). Outside the temperature range of 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °Fto 104 °F), the CHARGE indicator flashes rapidly and charging stops. A lithium ion battery pack can be charged at any charge state. Unlikeconventional battery packs, you do not need to completely use or discharge itbefore charging. We recommend that you prepare battery packs 2 to 3 times longer than youthink you might need.
