Questions and answers
battery clock replace
The Sony Handycam DCR-SR35E has a pre-installed rechargeable battery that retains the date, time, and other settings. This battery is not user-replaceable. It is automatically charged when the camcorder is connected to a wall outlet via the AC Adaptor or when a battery pack is attached. If the battery becomes weak, it will fully discharge in about 3 months without power, but it recharges when power is restored.
