viewfinder.

mirror, remove it with a commercially available air blower.
7-2-2 Phenomenon Inherent to CCD
Cameras
Smears
Smears may appear when shooting an object with very high
brightness.
This phenomenon may appear more frequently as the electronic
shutter speed increases.

7-2-3 Replacing the Backup Battery

The camera is shipped from the factory with a backup battery
already mounted.
When the battery runs out, the [BACK UP BATT EMPTY] display
appears on the viewfinder screen for 5 seconds after the power
switch is turned ON.
The internal clock stops operating when the battery runs out.
Also, the TCG time code value returns to [00:00:00:00], and the
time code backup is disabled. The battery must be replaced.
Please consult your nearest service center for replacement with
a new battery (CR2032).
The backup battery is visible when the panel on the LCD monitor
side is removed (right side when viewed from the front).
<Note>
Please contact the store where you purchased the camera or
an authorised service provider when replacing the battery.
