164 HP Photosmart R707 User’s Manual

When you switch to a mode that requires less power, like

Playback, the battery gauge may go up, indicating that

there is more operating time left in the battery if you stay in

that mode.

Extending Battery Life

Here are some tips for extending battery life:

! Turn off the Image Display and use the viewfinder instead

when framing pictures and video. Leave the Image Display

off whenever possible.

! Change the Live View at Power On setting in the Setup

Menu to Live View Off, so that your camera does not power

on in Live View (see Live View at Power On on page 118.

! Change the Display Brightness setting in the Setup Menu to

Low, so that the Image Display consumes less power when

in Live View (see Display Brightness on page 116).

! Minimize the use of flash by setting your camera to Auto

Flash, instead of Flash On (see Setting the Flash on

page 43).

! Use optical zoom only when necessary to minimize moving

the lens (see Optical Zoom on page 41).

! Minimize unnecessary power cycling. If you expect to

average more than two picture every five minutes, leave the

camera on with the Image Display off, rather than turning

off the camera after each shot. This minimizes the number of

times the lens must extend and retract.

! Use the HP AC power adapter or optional HP Photosmart

R-series dock when the camera will be on for extended

periods of time, such as when you transfer images to your

computer or when printing.
