Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause
your camcorder to malfunction. Take images
of the sun only in low light conditions, such as
at dusk.
About changing the language setting
The on-screen displays in each local language
are used for illustrating the operating
procedures. Change the screen language before
using your camcorder if necessary (p. 18).
Recording
Before starting to record, test the recording
function to make sure that the image and sound
are recorded without any problems.
Compensation for the contents of recordings
cannot be provided, even if recording or
playback is not possible due to a malfunction of
the camcorder, storage media, etc.
TV color systems differ depending on the
country/region. To view your recordings on a
TV, you need a PAL system-based TV.
Television programs, films, video tapes,
and other materials may be copyrighted.
Unauthorized recording of such materials may
be contrary to the copyright laws.
Save all your recorded image data
To prevent your image data from being lost,
save all your recorded images on external media
periodically. It is recommended that you save
the image data on a disc such as a DVD-R using
your computer (see Operating Guide). Also, you
can save your image data using a DVD writer, a
VCR, or a DVD/HDD recorder (p. 50).
Notes on battery pack/AC Adaptor
Be sure to remove the battery pack or the AC
Adaptor after turning off the camcorder.
When the camcorder is connected to a
computer
Do not try to format the media of the
camcorder using a computer. If you do so, your
camcorder may not operate correctly.
Note on disposal/transfer
Even if you perform [
[
DELETE ALL] or [MEDIA FORMAT],
some data might not be entirely deleted from
the internal memory. When you transfer the
camcorder, it is recommended that you perform
[
EMPTY] (p. 59) to prevent the recovery
of your data. Also, when you dispose of the
camcorder, it is recommended that you destroy
the actual body of the camcorder.
If you cannot record/play back images,
perform [MEDIA FORMAT]
If you repeat recording/deleting images for
a long time, fragmentation of data occurs on
the recording media. Images cannot be saved
or recorded. In such a case, save your images
on some type of external media first (p. 50,
see Operating Guide too), and then perform
[MEDIA FORMAT] (p. 58).
Carl Zeiss lens
Your camcorder is equipped with a Carl Zeiss
lens, which was developed jointly by Carl Zeiss,
in Germany, and Sony Corporation, and produces
superior images. It adopts the MTF measurement
system for video cameras and offers a quality
typical of a Carl Zeiss lens.
MTF= Modulation Transfer Function. The
number value indicates the amount of light from a
subject coming into the lens.
