This camcorder displays remaining recording/playback time on the LCD screen or in the
viewfinder. This function may not work properly in certain operating conditions. Especially
when using the memory card slot, the correct remaining time may not be indicated due to
increased power consumption. This is not a malfunction.
Power supply
When using a video light (not supplied) or similar equipment connected to the intelligent
accessory shoe of the camcorder, recording an image to a "Memory Stick" or PC card may
result in a temporary power shortage in the accessory shoe, causing the video light to go out.
This does not affect other functions.

When using a battery case (not supplied) such as the EBP-L7, you cannot perform operations
that require the PC card adaptor. The screen displays "FOR "InfoLITHIUM" BATTERY

Electronic Industry Development Association).
You cannot play back on your camcorder still images recorded on other equipment that
conform with this universal standard.
