Notes:
• Avoid touching the LCD screen when moving the LCD panel.
• Do not hold the camera by the LCD panel or the viewfinder.
• Make sure you open the LCD panel at 90°, before attempting to rotate it backwards or forwards.
• Always rotate the LCD panel vertically into place, before closing it or pushing it flat against the side
of the camera.
• Be careful not to leave the LCD, viewfinder or lens exposed to direct sunlight outdoors or in a
window. Doing so could cause damage.
• Bright light falling on the LCD screen may cause glare that makes it difficult to view the image. In
this case, switch to using the viewfinder. You are also able to adjust the brightness of the screen
(see "Adjusting the LCD screen" below).

About the LCD Screen
The LCD screen built into this camcorder is a high precision product.
However, small black dots or bright points of light (red, blue or green) may appear constantly on
the LCD screen. This is not a malfunction of the LCD screen and they are not recorded on the
tape. (Effective dots: more than 99.99%)
