- The battery life figures shown here were determined using an Olympus test method. Actual battery life figures will vary greatly according to the battery used and usage conditions (Changing the playback speed or using the [Zoom Mic], [Noise Cancel] and [Voice Balancer] functions may affect the battery life).
- Battery life will be shorter when using a nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery that has been used repeatedly.
- Battery life will be shorter when using a microSD card.
