About Waterproof / Dustproof performance of the camera “DMC-FT1”

This camera is waterproof / dustproof equivalent to “IP58”, and is possible to record at a maximum of 3.0 m depth/60 min. This does not guarantee non-

destruction, non-malfunction, and water-proofi ng in all conditions. Please observe specifi ed precautions and avoid product-use beyond the guaranteed 

underwater duration, or beyond the guaranteed depth of water. 

- Attention -  To prevent water leakage, confirm that there is no foreign object near card/battery door then close door by pressing until it clicks. •

Use underwater up to 3.0 m depth and not longer than 60 minutes continuously. •Do not leave under low temperature in the cold climate, or where 

the temperature is above 40°C for a long period of time. •When the unit is splashed with detergent, soap, hot spring, bath additive, sun oil, sunscreen, 

chemical, etc., wipe it off immediately. •After use at the seaside or underwater, soak the unit in fresh water pooled in a shallow container for 10 minutes 

or less. Do not leave uncared for more than 60 minutes after using underwater. It may cause deterioration of the waterproof performance. •Foreign 

materials may be attached if the zoom lever or mode dial does not move smoothly. Soak the unit in fresh water, shake it well and then wash the zoom 

lever and mode dial with tap water. •To maintain the waterproof performance, it is recommended that the waterproof seal (with fee) is replaced at least 

once every 1 year at the retail store where you have bought the camera.

About Shockproof performance of the camera “DMC-FT1”

This camera has passed a drop test from 1.5 m in height in accordance with “MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock”, but this does not guarantee non-destruction, 

non-malfunction, and water-proofi ng in all conditions. Water-proofi ng is not guaranteed if the unit is subject to an impact as a result of being hit or dropped etc.

About the performance of Face Recognition function

Recognition performance varies greatly depending on shooting conditions, i.e., according to factors such as angles, facial expression and lighting, so 

operation under all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Because the camera searches for faces that are similar to registered faces, there are cases where 

the faces are not correctly recognized when the registered image and the shooting image varies much. When facial characteristics are similar, particularly 

between parents and their children or brothers and sisters, the camera may not distinguish the faces.
