Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX77 Operating Instructions Manual page 148

When recording pictures or half-pressing the shutter button, reddish stripes may
appear on the LCD monitor. Alternatively, part or all of the LCD monitor may turn
a reddish colour.
•
This is a characteristic of CCDs, and it appears when the subject has a
bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but
this is not a malfunction.
It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
•
It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to
expose the screen to sunlight or any other source of strong light.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
•
Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 4" or higher when recording motion pictures in
[AVCHD].
Also, use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 6" or higher when recording motion pictures
in [Motion JPEG].
•
Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
> If motion picture recording stops during use of a card of at least "Class 4" or if you use a
card that has been formatted on a PC or other equipment, the data-writing speed is lower.
In such cases, we recommend that you make a backup of the data and then format
the card in this unit.
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
•
If the subject has different colours as the periphery, set the AF area to those colours specific to
the subject by aligning that area with the AF area.
Recorded image may be warped, or nonexistent colour is surrounding the
subject.
•
It is possible that the subject may be warped slightly, or the borders get coloured, depending on
the zoom magnification, due to the characteristics of the lens. Also, the peripherals of the
image might look warped because the perspective is enhanced when the wide angle is used.
This is not a malfunction.
