Viewing 3D Video
• Viewing 3D video shot using this camcorder on
a 3D monitor can cause symptoms of
discomfort, such as eye fatigue, tiredness, or
nausea. It is recommended that you take regular
rest breaks when watching 3D video. The
duration and frequency of required rest breaks
will vary from person to person, so each person
must judge for themselves. If discomfort
occurs, stop watching 3D video until the
symptoms subside, and consult your doctor if
necessary. Also, please follow the instructions
provided with the software or the hardware
connected to the camcorder. Furthermore, the
sense of vision of young children (especially
children less than 6 years of age) is still in a
development stage. Before allowing young
children to view 3D video, please consult a
pediatrician or ophthalmologist. A responsible
adult should always supervise any children to
observe the above-mentioned precautions.
• The perception of 3D video varies depending on
the individual.
