Hello again guys,
long time no see ,since yesterday as far as I remember 😄
Talking about Auto Power Off function , is there anyone that can tell us , it could be used on long terms - many days for example - as long as no one push the shutter or any button to wake the "beast" ?
This function completly shut down the camera or it's a kind of sleep function and some parts remain power supplied ?
Thanks,
Solved! Go to Solution.

It's not completly shutdown. However, it should not cost too much power if any at all. I have it on for a week. Unless you turn on the GPS. With GPS turned on, even if you turn off the camera, it is still active.

I use sleep mode all the time & there are many times when the camera will sit unused for several days or even 2 or 3 weeks at times. Never ever noticed a shortened battery life from it so the draw must be minimal. .
