Discs of AVCHD movies recorded by your camera can only be played back on devices
supporting AVCHD format.
DVD players and DVD recorders do not support AVCHD format, so they cannot playback

Also, if a high definition image quality (HD) disc recorded with AVCHD format is inserted
in either of DVD players or DVD recorders, the disc may be unable to eject from the
device.
Movies recorded in 1080 60p/1080 50p format can be played back only on 1080 60p/1080

On the monitor, viewfinder, and lens
The monitor and 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
consistently appear on the monitor and the viewfinder. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and do not affect the images in any way.
Exposing the monitor or lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause a malfunction.
Exercise caution when placing the product near a window or outdoors.
Do not press against the monitor. The monitor may be discolored and that may cause a
malfunction.
Images may trail across on the monitor in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.
If the monitor has drops of water or other liquids on it, wipe it with a soft cloth. If the
monitor stays wet, the surface of the monitor may change or deteriorate. This may cause
a malfunction.
Make sure not to bump the lens or subject it to force.
Do not carry the camera by the monitor.
When using the power zoom lens, be careful not to get your fingers or any other objects
caught in the lens.
Do not expose the camera to sunlight or shoot sunward for a long time. The internal
mechanism may be damaged.
Do not look at sunlight or a strong light source through the lens when it is detached. This
may result in unrecoverable damage to the eyes or cause a malfunction to the lens.
Do not use the camera in areas where strong radio waves or radiation is being emitted.
Recording and playback may not function correctly.

Shooting with the viewfinder

When looking through the viewfinder, you may experience symptoms such as eye
soreness, fatigue, or nausea similar to car-sickness. We recommend that you take
periodic breaks when shooting with the viewfinder. Determine the necessary length and
frequency of breaks on your own, as these will vary from individual to individual. If
