following actions.
• Disconnect the power source and press the RESET button. This resets all the camera’s settings to default values

magnets and motors, MRI machines or high-voltage power lines.

- This is a phenomenon typical of CMOS image sensors when recording under some types of fluorescent, mercury or
sodium lamps. This is not a malfunction. You may be able to reduce the symptoms by setting the shutter mode to
[Speed] and the shutter speed to a value matching the frequency of the local electrical system: 1/50* or 1/100 for
50 Hz systems, 1/60 or 1/120 for 60 Hz systems.
* May not be available depending on the frame rate.
Audio cannot be recorded.
- An external microphone connected to the XLR terminal requires phantom power. Set the XLR terminal switch to
MIC+48V (A 93).
- The camera’s MIC terminal is given priority over the XLR terminals. To record audio from the XLR terminals, be sure not
to connect any microphones to the MIC terminal.
Audio is recorded at an extremely low level.
- When using the XLR terminals: The AUDIO LEVEL switch is set to M, and the recording level is set too low. When using
the MIC terminal: [Audio Setup] > [Audio Input] > [MIC Mode] is set to [Manual] and the [MIC Level] setting is too
low. Check the audio level meter on the screen or rear panel and adjust the audio level correctly (A 94, 95).
- The microphone attenuator is on. Turn off the microphone attenuator (A 95, 96).
Sound is distorted or is recorded at lower levels.
- When recording near loud sounds (such as fireworks, shows or concerts), sound may become distorted or it may not
be recorded at the actual levels. Activate the microphone attenuator (A 95, 96), or adjust the audio recording level
manually.

some space or replace the CF card.
