Conserving Battery
The Ghost-S comes with a rechargeable 1700mAh Lithium-Ion battery, allowing
you to record continuously for hours between charges. However, sometimes you
may find yourself in a location without a power outlet to charge your camera. If
you’re outside, cold conditions can drain battery power at a faster rate than usual.
Fortunately, the Ghost-S comes with a number of features to conserve the battery
life. These can all be found in the Camera Settings menu.
LCD O
The camera’s LCD screen consumes power, so one of the best ways to
extend battery life is to use the ‘LCD O’ feature. By default, LCD screen will
automatically power o after 20 seconds (the time interval can be chosen when
selecting ‘LCD O’ from the Camera Settings menu).
The camera will still function as normal when the screen is o: in Live Preview,
the camera is ready to record at any time. If recording is in progress, the camera
will continue to record. The remote can also be used while the screen is o. The
screen can be turned back on again at any time by pressing any button.
LCD Brightness
The LCD screen is backlit, this too consumes power. It is possible to reduce the
intensity of this light by adjusting the ‘LCD Brightness’ setting in the Camera
Settings menu—you will notice a slight increase in battery life if you use a lower
brightness setting.
Camera Auto O
It is possible to set the camera to power o entirely when no buttons are pressed
for a number of minutes (the duration can be chosen selecting ‘Camera Auto
O’ from the Camera Settings menu). This can be useful to reduce battery
consumption if the camera is accidently left powered on.
! The camera will not power o while recording is in progress. However,
once the camera has powered o, you will need to power it on again before
capturing any footage.
! The remote control will not operate the camera while the unit is powered o.
Using Dierent Video Resolutions
Bigger resolutions as well as higher frame rates all contribute to more ‘work’ for
the processor; this means more battery power is required to process the
work. If you are shooting video and do not require full 1080p (for instance for
easy internet sharing) try using a lower resolution and your battery life will
increase accordingly. For example, in 1080p at 30fps you can expect 3h 30min
versus 4h 20min in WVGA at 30fps.
Spare batteries
You can also charge a second battery
before you set out and then swap it
when the first is empty. Spare 1700mAh
Ghost batteries and Power Packs are
available from ocial Drift retailers.

information and where to purchase.
! Always change the battery in a
clean, dry and safe environment.
Getting camera batteries wet will
damage them and may result in
injury. For your own safety, never
use damaged batteries.
