Description

Battery Performance for the EOS 50D.

Solution

Battery Life (number of shots)
Temperature Shooting Conditions
No Flash 50% Flash Use
At 23°C / 73°F 800 (approx) 640 (approx)
At 0°C / 32°F 680 (approx) 540 (approx)

Reference:

  • The actual number of shots may be fewer than indicated above depending on the shooting conditions.
  • Pressing the shutter button halfway for long periods or operating only the autofocus can also reduce the number of possible shots.
  • The number of possible shots will decrease with more frequent use of the LCD monitor.
  • The number of possible shots with the BP-514 is the same as indicated in the table.
  • The number of possible shots with the BP-511 or BP-512 will be about 75% of the figures in the table for 23°C / 73°F. At 0°C / 32°F, the figures will be about the same as in the table.
  • The lens operation is powered by the camera's battery. Using certain lenses can reduce the number of possible shots.
  • Using the Image Stabilizer of the lens will decrease the number of possible shots (shorter battery life).
Possible Shots During Live View Shooting
Temperature Shooting Conditions
No Flash 50% Flash Use
At 23°C / 73°F 180(approx) 170 (approx)
At 0°C / 32°F 140(approx) 130 (approx)

Reference:

  • The figures above are based on a fully-charged Battery Pack BP-511A and CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) testing standards.
  • Continuous Live View shooting is possible for about 1 hours at 23°C / 73°F (with fully-charged BP-511A).
  • Using AF will decrease the number of possible shots.
