18. Materials – Troubleshooting Recording Recording stops before finishing. Cannot record. Cannot use some functions. • In high ambient temperatures or if the camera is continuously used for High-definition video recording, high-speed burst pictures, and HDMI output etc., the temperature of the camera will rise. If the camera temperature rises, [ ] will be displayed blinking on the screen.
Page 738 18. Materials – Troubleshooting The recorded image is too bright or dark. • Ensure AE Lock is not set where it is not appropriate. (Locking Focus and Exposure (AF/AE Lock): 271) Multiple images are recorded at once. • When drive mode is set to [ ] (Burst Shot), pressing and holding the shutter button will take burst pictures.
Page 739 18. Materials – Troubleshooting The recorded image looks rough. Noise appears on the picture. • Try the following: – Reduce the ISO sensitivity. (ISO Sensitivity: 273) – Increase [Noise Reduction] of [Photo Style] to the positive direction, or adjust each item other than [Noise Reduction] to the negative direction.
Page 740 18. Materials – Troubleshooting Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting. • This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. This is not a malfunction. • When using the electronic shutter ([Shutter Type]: 240), lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of the horizontal stripes.
Page 741 18. Materials – Troubleshooting The brightness or coloring of the recorded image is different from the actual scene. • When recording under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting, increasing the shutter speed may introduce slight changes to brightness or coloring. These are a result of the characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.
Page 742: Video
18. Materials – Troubleshooting Video Cannot record videos. • When using a large capacity card, you may not be able to record for a while after turning on the camera. Video recording stops in the middle. • Recording video requires a card of a supported Speed Class. Use a compatible card. (Memory Cards That Can Be Used: In videos, abnormal clicking and buzzing sounds are recorded.

You can change the band color in [Background Color(Playback)] in [HDMI Connection] of the [Setup] ([IN/OUT]) menu.
Page 749: Others
18. Materials – Troubleshooting Others When the camera is shaken, a rattling sound is heard from the camera. • The sound is caused by the in-body stabilizer. This is not a malfunction. There is rattling noise from the lens when the camera is turned on or off, or when the camera is swung.
Page 750: Cautions For Use
18. Materials – Cautions for Use Cautions for Use  The camera Keep this unit as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.). • If you use this unit on top of or near a TV, the pictures and/or sound on this unit may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.
Page 751 18. Materials – Cautions for Use Do not spray the camera with insecticides or volatile chemicals. • If the camera is sprayed with such chemicals, the body of the camera may be damaged and the surface finish may peel off. Do not keep products made of rubber, PVC or similar materials in contact with the camera for a long period of time.
Page 752 18. Materials – Cautions for Use  Cleaning Before cleaning the camera, remove the battery or the DC Coupler, and disconnect the power plug from the electrical outlet. Then wipe the camera with a dry, soft cloth. • When the camera is soiled badly, it can be cleaned by wiping the dirt off with a wrung wet cloth, and then with a dry cloth.
Page 753 Do not use any objects except a blower to clean the image sensor. • If you cannot remove the dirt or dust with the blower, consult the dealer or Panasonic.  Cleaning the Viewfinder If the viewfinder is dirty, then remove the eye cup and clean.
Page 754 18. Materials – Cautions for Use  Monitor/Viewfinder • Do not push hard on the monitor. This may cause irregular coloration or malfunction. • Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the monitor/viewfinder screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots, or spots that light constantly (red, blue, or green) on the screen.
