Notes on using your camera

Shooting procedure

This camera has 2 modes for monitoring

subjects: the LCD screen mode using the

LCD screen, and the viewfinder mode

using the viewfinder.

Notes on the functions available with

the camera

• To check whether it is a 1080 60i-

compatible device or 1080 50i-

compatible device, check for the

following marks on the bottom of the

camera.

1080 60i-compatible device:60i

1080 50i-compatible device:50i

• This camera is compatible with 1080 60p

or 50p-format movies. Unlike standard

recording modes up to now, which record

in an interlacing method, this camera

records using a progressive method. This

increases the resolution, and provides a

smoother, more realistic image.

Shooting with a DT lens

This camera is equipped with a 35 mm,

full-frame CMOS sensor, however, the

image size is automatically set to that of the

APS-C size setting, and the image size is

smaller when a DT lens (“DT” is attached

to the product name) is used (page 137).

No compensation for contents of the

recording

The contents of the recording cannot be

compensated for if recording or playback is

not possible due to a malfunction of your

camera or a memory card, etc.

Back up recommendation

To avoid the potential risk of data loss,

always copy (back up) data to other

medium.

Notes on the LCD screen, electronic

viewfinder, lens, and image sensor

• The LCD screen and electronic

viewfinder are manufactured using

extremely high-precision technology so

over 99.99% of the pixels are operational

for effective use. However, there may be

some tiny black points and/or bright

points (white, red, blue or green in color)

that constantly appear on the LCD screen

and electronic viewfinder. These points

are normal in the manufacturing process

and do not affect the images in any way.

• Do not hold the camera by the LCD

screen.

• Do not expose the camera to sunlight or

shoot sunward for a long time. The

internal mechanism may be damaged. If

sunlight is focused on a nearby object, it

may cause a fire.

• There is a magnet on the back and around

the rotating shaft of the hinge part of the

LCD screen. Do not bring anything that

is easily affected by a magnet, such as

floppy disks or credit cards, near the

LCD screen.

• Images may trail across on the screen in a

cold location. This is not a malfunction.

When turning on the camera in a cold

location, the screen may become

temporarily dark. When the camera

warms up, the screen will function

normally.

• The recorded image may be different

from the image you monitored before

recording.

Notes on long-time recording

• When you continue to shoot for a long

time, the temperature of the camera rises.

If the temperature reaches above a certain

level, the icon appears on the screen

and the camera turns itself off

automatically. If the power is turned off,

leave the camera for 10 minutes or longer

to allow the temperature inside the

camera to decrease to a safe level.

• Under high ambient temperatures, the

temperature of the camera rises quickly.

Screen language

You can select the language displayed

on the screen using the menu (page 47).
