np-f970
How many hours is the np-f970 good for.
Once I put some time in, maybe I can be of some help to someone. Sorry for the simple questions. I have the 770 currently, it seems pretty good. Thanks! |

you mean at one time? If so then I get somewhere in the area of 500 to 600+ minutes but then my batteries are more than 3 years old. Hell I've got 2 that are almost 7 years old and still work. Only hold a charge good for about 300 minutes maybe a touch more but they work great for 2nd camera.

It depends what you're shooting with. I used to get 5 or 6 hours on my PD-170. I get about 3 hours on the Z5 with the MRC-1 running.

Not sure how accurate the Z5's algorithm is for estimating remaining battery life, but this is what it reports when a fully-charged battery is inserted (first number is without HVR-MRC1):
NP-F570 134/95 minutes NP-F770 275/198 minutes NP-F970 422/365 minutes Bill |
