Notes on using your camera

Screen language
You can select the language displayed on the screen
using the menu (page 42).
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 HF 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.
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
