Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX80 Operating Instructions Manual page 163

When recording pictures or half-pressing the shutter button, reddish stripes may
appear on the LCD monitor. Alternatively, part or all of the LCD monitor may turn
a reddish colour.
•
This is a characteristic of CCDs, and it appears when the subject has a
bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but
this is not a malfunction.
It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
•
It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to
expose the screen to sunlight or any other source of strong light.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
•
Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 4" or higher when recording motion pictures.
•
Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
> If motion picture recording stops during use of a card of at least "Class 4" or if you use a
card that has been formatted on a PC or other equipment, the data-writing speed is lower.
In such cases, we recommend that you make a backup of the data and then format
the card in this unit.
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
•
If the subject contains sections that differ in colour to the surroundings, touch those sections or
the main colours of the subject to set the AF frame (P55).
Recording by [Panorama Shot] is ended before finishing.
•
If the camera is moved too slowly, the camera has assumed that camera motion was stopped
and ended the still picture recording.
•
If there is a great deal of shaking towards the recording direction while moving the camera,
recording is ended.
> When recording with [Panorama Shot], move the camera by trying to trace a small circle
parallel to the recording direction at a speed of about 8 seconds per revolution (estimated).
Operation sound is small.
•
Is your finger covering up the speaker?
Lens
Recorded image may be warped, or nonexistent colour is surrounding the
subject.
•
It is possible that the subject may be warped slightly, or the borders get coloured, depending on
the zoom magnification, due to the characteristics of the lens. Also, the peripherals of the
image might look warped because the perspective is enhanced when the wide angle is used.
This is not a malfunction.
