Precautions

Handling the screen
• The panel fitted to this unit is manufactured with high
precision technology, giving a functioning pixel ratio of
at least 99.99%. Thus a very small proportion of pixels
may be "stuck", either always off (black), always on
(red, green, or blue), or flashing. In addition, over a
long period of use, because of the physical
characteristics of the panel, such "stuck" pixels may
appear spontaneously. These problems are not a
malfunction.
These phenomena have no effect on the camera's
output signals.
• Do not leave the screen facing the sun as it can damage
the screen. Take care when you use the unit outdoors.
• Do not push or scratch the screen. Do not place a heavy
object on the screen. This may cause the screen to lose
uniformity.
• The screen and the cabinet become warm during
operation. This is not a malfunction.
• Do not apply strong shock to the screen. This may
damage the internal structure or deform the cabinet.
On burn-in
Due to the characteristics of the material used in the
OLED panel for its high-precision images, permanent
burn-in may occur if still images are displayed in the same
position on the screen continuously, or repeatedly over
extended periods.
Images that may cause burn-in
• Masked images with aspect ratios other than 16:9
• Color bars or images that remain static for a long time
• Character or message displays that indicate settings or
the operating state
• On-screen displays such as center markers or safety
zones
To reduce the risk of burn-in
• Display the image on the full screen.
Set the mask display to OFF on the connected camera.
For details, refer to the operation manual of the camera.
• Turn off the character and marker displays.
Press the MENU switch to turn off the character
displays. To turn off the character or marker displays of
the connected equipment, operate the connected
equipment accordingly. For details, refer to the
operation manual of the connected equipment.
• Turn off the power when not in use.
Turn off the power if the viewfinder is not to be used for
a prolonged period of time.
