Continuous Audio Playback*
The values noted above are approximate values until power fails, based on continuous recording with flash off, at normal
temperature (25°C). The above does not guarantee that you will be able to achieve this level of operation. Low temperatures
shorten battery life. Voice recording times are based on continuous recording, while audio playback times are based on
continuous output (through headphones).
* Voice recording and audio playback times apply to the EX-M2 only.

Power Supply
• Use only the special NP-20 rechargeable lithium ion battery to power this camera. Use of any other type of battery is not
supported.
• This camera does not require a battery for the clock. The date and time settings of the camera are cleared whenever power
supplied by both the battery and USB cradle is interrupted. Be sure to reconfigure these settings after power is interrupted.
LCD Panel
• The LCD panel is a product of the latest LCD manufacturing technology that provides a pixel yield of 99.99%. This means that
less than 0.01% of the total pixels are defective (they do not turn on or always remain turned on).
