Sony PXW-FS5 Operating Manual page 145

Tiny spots in white, red, blue, or green appear on the LCD screen.
• This phenomenon appears when using a slow shutter speed (p. 49). This is not a malfunction.
The subjects passing by the frame very fast appear crooked.
• This is called the focal plane phenomenon. This is not a malfunction. Because of the way that
the image device (CMOS sensor) reads out image signals, the subjects passing by the frame
rapidly might appear crooked depending on the recording conditions.
Horizontal stripes appear on the image.
• This occurs when recording pictures under a fluorescent lamp, sodium lamp, or mercury
lamp. This is not a malfunction. This can be improved by changing the shutter speed (p. 49).
The image appears divided horizontally.
• Images on the LCD screen look horizontally divided when a subject is continuously lit with a
flash. The effect of this phenomenon may be reduced by using a slower shutter speed.
• You may try downloading the "Catalyst Browse" software to repair the image.
Black bands appear when you record a TV screen or computer screen.
• Adjust the shutter speed (p. 49).
Fine patterns flicker, diagonal lines look jagged.
• Adjust [DETAIL] to the negative side (p. 88).
The time code is not recorded in sequence.
• The time code may not be recorded sequentially if you change the recording format settings.
Playback

• Select the memory card and image quality of the image you want to play back on the
thumbnail screen (p. 93).
• Image data cannot be played back if you have modified file names or folders, or have edited
the data on a computer. This is not a malfunction.
• Images recorded on other devices may not be played back, or displayed in incorrect size. This
is not a malfunction.
