Preparations

Preparing the Power Supply

You can power the camera using a battery or a power outlet. Even when a battery is attached, if the camera is

connected to a power outlet, it will not draw power from the battery.

Using a Battery

You can power the camera using the BP-A30 Battery Pack or the BP-A60 Battery Pack. Both battery packs are

compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery usage time (in minutes)

on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery for the first time, charge it fully and then use the

camera until the battery is completely depleted.

Charging the Battery

Charge battery packs using the CG-A20 Battery Charger and

CA-CP200 L Compact Power Adapter. Before charging, remove

the terminal cover of the battery pack.

1 Connect the AC adapter to the battery charger and plug the

power cord into a power outlet.

2 Attach the battery to the battery charger.

• Press lightly and slide the battery in the direction of the arrow

until it clicks.

• The CHARGE indicator starts flashing and also indicates the

battery pack’s approximate charge. The indicator will stay on

when charging has completed.

approx. 0% to 49%: Flashes once every 2 seconds

approx. 50% to 74%: Flashes twice every 2 seconds

approx. 75% to 99%: Flashes 3 times every 2 seconds

3 Disconnect the AC adapter from the battery charger and unplug the power cord.

4 Remove the battery from the battery charger.

IMPORTANT

• Do not connect to the battery charger any product that is not expressly recommended for use with this

camera.

• When using the battery charger or AC adapter, do not fix it permanently to one place as this may cause a

malfunction.

• To prevent equipment breakdowns and excessive heating, do not connect the battery charger or AC adapter

to voltage converters for overseas travels or special power sources such as those on aircraft and ships,

DC-AC inverters, etc.

NOTES

• We recommend charging the battery in temperatures between 10 ºC and 30 ºC (50 ºF and 86 ºF). Outside the

temperature range of 0 ºC to 40 ºC (32 ºF to 104 ºF), charging will not start.

• If there is a malfunction with the battery charger, AC adapter or battery, the charge indicator will go out and

charging will stop.

• For handling precautions regarding the battery, refer to Handling Precautions (A 194).

• For approximate charging times / usage times, refer to the Reference Tables (A 205) and Approximate

Continuous Recording Times (A 201).

• Charged batteries continue to discharge naturally. Therefore, charge them on the day of use, or the day

before, to ensure a full charge.

• We recommend that you prepare batteries to last 2 to 3 times longer than you think you might need.

• Repeatedly charging and completely depleting a battery will eventually shorten its battery life. You can check

the battery life on the [B System Setup] status screen (A 178). Fully charging the battery and then depleting

it completely will give you a more accurate reading.

Attaching the Battery

1 Turn off the camera.

2 Insert the battery all the way into the compartment as

shown in the illustration and press it gently toward the left

until it clicks.

Removing the Battery

1 Turn off the camera.

2 Holding down the BATTERY RELEASE button (햲), slide

the battery toward the right and then pull it out (햳).

Preparing the Power Supply

Checking the Remaining Battery Charge

When the camera is turned on, you can check the approximate remaining battery usage time (in minutes) by

looking at any recording/playback screen or the [B System Setup] status screen (A 178). You can also check

the approximate charge level on the battery itself.

Press the CHECK button on the battery. An indicator will

light for approximately 3 seconds and show the

approximate remaining battery charge.

51-75%

76-100%

NOTES

• The remaining battery charge level displayed in minutes on the screen may not match the [B System Setup]

status screen or the indicators on the battery pack.

Using a Power Outlet

You can also power the camera directly from a power outlet using the CA-CP200 L Compact Power Adapter

(AC adapter). While the camera is powered using a power outlet, you can replace the battery pack even when

the camera is turned on.

1 Connect the power cord to the AC adapter and plug

it into a power outlet.

2 Connect the AC adapter’s DC plug to the DC IN

terminal on the camera.

IMPORTANT

• Make sure to turn off the camera before connecting or

disconnecting the AC adapter.

• When using the AC adapter, do not fix it permanently to

one place as this may cause a malfunction.

Checking the Voltage Level of the Power Source

The voltage level appears on the screen (A 43). Select > [B System Setup] > [DC IN Warning (V)] to set

a power warning level. When the voltage from the DC IN terminal reaches the set value, the onscreen voltage

indicator will turn red and a warning will be displayed.

NOTES

• The camera will not start recording if the voltage falls below the selected low-power warning level (A 172).

While shooting, the recording will be interrupted and the camera will turn off if the power voltage falls below the

level required for the camera's operation.

Preventing the accidental unplugging of the power cord

Pass the power cord through the clamp at the bottom of the camera as

shown in the illustration to prevent the accidental unplugging of the DC plug.
