Sleep Mode

[Rodrigo Prata]

Hi guys

How long is a fully charged REDvolt supposed to las with the camera on sleep mode? I`ve just installed the last firmware (I`ve not had the camera for the last 3 months, it was rented for a feature film) and was playing with the new settings.

I`ve put the camera in sleep mode and went to take a shower (I`ve had a 65% charged redvolt in it). I imagined it would last more, but after my shower the camera had turned off, I tried to boot the camera and the redvolt had o% and the camera almost immediately shut down again.

I was in the shower for 30 minutes but since the camera was already off I don`t know how much it lasted.

I was disappointed, I taught with sleep mode it would last much more.

Cheers!

Sleep mode draws maybe 20% less power. I measured it once. Not like sleep on a laptop, but it does help a little.

What about the power save mode?

Going from memory, saves about 10%.
