Page 876: Power, Battery
Materials – Troubleshooting Power, Battery The camera turns off automatically. • [Power Save Mode] is enabled. ([Power Save Mode]: The battery becomes flat too quickly. • When connected to Wi-Fi, the battery drains quickly. Turn the camera off frequently such as by using [Power Save Mode] ([Power Save Mode]: 60).
Page 877: Recording
Materials – Troubleshooting Recording Recording stops before finishing. Cannot record. Cannot use some functions. • The temperature of the camera rises more readily in the following circumstances: when the ambient temperature is high, during continuous use such as when recording high-definition video or outputting via HDMI. When the temperature of the camera rises, [ ] appears blinking on the screen.
Page 878 Materials – Troubleshooting The recorded image is too bright or dark. • Ensure AE Lock is not set where it is not appropriate. (Locking Focus and Exposure (AF/AE Lock): 326) Multiple images are recorded at once. • When drive mode is set to [ ] (Burst Shot 1) or [ ] (Burst Shot 2), pressing and holding the shutter button will take burst pictures.
Page 879 Materials – Troubleshooting The recorded image is blurred. The image stabilizer is not effective. • The shutter speed will become slower and the image stabilizer function may not work properly when recording in dark places. In these cases, use a tripod and the self-timer when recording. The recorded image looks rough.
Page 880 Materials – Troubleshooting Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting. • This is characteristic of CMOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. This is not a malfunction. • When using the electronic shutter ([Shutter Type]: 283), lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of the horizontal stripes.
Page 881 Materials – Troubleshooting The brightness or coloring of the recorded image is different from the actual scene. • When recording under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting, increasing the shutter speed may introduce slight changes to brightness or coloring. These are a result of the characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.
Page 882: Video
Materials – Troubleshooting Video Cannot record videos. • Try again after either returning the [System Frequency] to the original setting or inserting another card. • When using a large capacity card, you may not be able to record for a while after turning on the camera.
Page 883: Playback
Materials – Troubleshooting Playback Cannot play back. There are no recorded pictures. • Folders and images processed on a PC cannot be played on the camera. • Some images are not displayed when the [Playback Mode] is set. Set to [Normal Play].
Page 884: Monitor/Viewfinder
Materials – Troubleshooting Monitor/Viewfinder The monitor/viewfinder turns off when the camera is turned on. • If no operations are performed during the set time period, [Auto LVF/Monitor Off] ([Auto LVF/Monitor Off]: 61) is activated, and the monitor/viewfinder turns off. • When an object or your hand is positioned near the eye sensor, the monitor display may switch to the viewfinder display.

Page 890: Cautions For Use
Materials – Cautions for Use Cautions for Use  The Camera Keep this unit as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.). • If you use this unit on top of or near a TV, the pictures and/or sound on this unit may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.
Page 891 Materials – Cautions for Use Keep items away from the magnetic parts (A)/(B)/(C) that are easily influenced by magnetism. The effects of the magnets may cause items like bank cards, commuter cards, and clocks to cease functioning correctly. Do not spray the camera with insecticides or volatile chemicals. •...
Page 892 Materials – Cautions for Use  When Using in Cold Places or at Low Temperatures • Skin burns may result if you leave the metal parts of the camera in direct contact with the skin for long periods of time at cold places (environments with temperatures at or below 0 oC (32 oF), such as ski resorts or places at high altitude).
Page 893 Materials – Cautions for Use  Cleaning Before cleaning the camera, remove the battery or the DC Coupler, and disconnect the power plug from the electrical outlet. Then wipe the camera with a dry, soft cloth. • When the camera is soiled badly, it can be cleaned by wiping the dirt off with a wrung wet cloth, and then with a dry cloth.
Page 894 Do not use any objects except a blower brush to clean the image sensor. • If you cannot remove the dirt or dust with the blower, consult the dealer or Panasonic.  Cleaning the Viewfinder If the viewfinder is dirty, then remove the eye cup and clean.
Page 895 Materials – Cautions for Use  Monitor/Viewfinder • Do not push hard on the monitor. This may cause irregular coloration or malfunction. • Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the monitor/viewfinder screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots, or spots that light constantly (red, blue, or green) on the screen.
Page 896 To improve the dust and splash resistant performance of the interchangeable lens (H-ES12060/H-FS12060), a lens mount rubber is used in the mount. – The lens mount rubber will leave scuff marks on the digital camera mount, but this does not impact performance. – To replace the lens mount rubber, contact Panasonic.
Page 897 Materials – Cautions for Use  Battery The battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. It is highly sensitive to temperature and humidity, and the effect on performance increases as the temperature rises or drops. Do not let the battery terminals (H) become soiled. •...
Page 898 Materials – Cautions for Use  Charger • The charging lights may blink under the influence of static electricity or electromagnetic wave, depending on the charging environment. This phenomenon has no effects on charging. • Keep the contacts (I) of the charger and battery clean. Wipe them with a dry cloth if they get dirty.
Page 899 Please note in advance that Panasonic is not liable in any way for any direct or indirect damage from the alteration or vanishing of information or personal information.
Page 900 Check all the parts before recording when you have not used the camera for a long period of time.  Image Data • Recorded data may be damaged or lost if the camera breaks down due to inappropriate handling. Panasonic will not be liable for any damage caused due to loss of recorded data.
Page 901 Materials – Cautions for Use  Tripod • Make sure the tripod is stable when the camera is attached to it. • When using a tripod, removal of the battery may not be possible. • Care is required because tightening the screw excessively may damage the camera, or cause the rating label to come off.
