Battery life
When recording with built-in stereo microphone (using internal memory)
The figures given here for battery life are the results of in-house testing([LED]:[Off];[Backlight]:[Off]).Actual battery life varies widely by battery type and conditions of use (among the features with the greatest effect on battery life are pre-recoding,noise cancellation,the voice balancer,Bluetooth®,and changes in playback speed).
Battery life will be shorter when using nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries that has been usedrepeatedly.
Battery life will be shorter when using a microSD card.
Actually available recording times may be shorter than the figures shown here when making short recordings repeatedly (Equipment displays of available/elapsed recording times should be considered guideline values).
Available recording time will also vary due to differences in the available memory capacity of different microSD cards
