≥
The memory capacity indicated on the label
of an SD card is the total of the capacity for
copyright protection and management and
the capacity which can be used on the unit, a
computer etc.
≥
During prolonged use, the unit’s surfaces and
the SD card will heat up slightly. This is
normal.
When inserting or removing the SD card,
always set the OFF/ON switch to OFF.
When the access lamp is illuminated
(during access to the SD card), do not
remove the SD card, turn off the power, or
cause any vibrations or impacts.
≥
When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with
a dry soft cloth.
≥
In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may form on the LCD monitor.
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥
When the unit has become very cold, for
example due to storage in a cold area, its
LCD monitor will be slightly darker than usual
immediately after the power is turned on. The
normal brightness will be restored when the
unit’s internal temperature rises.
When condensation forms on the unit, the lens
will cloud up and the unit may not work
properly. Make every effort to ensure that
condensation does not form. If it does form,
take the actions described below.
Causes of condensation
Condensation takes place when the ambient
temperature or humidity is changed as
follows.
≥
When this unit is brought inside from the cold
(e.g. a ski slope) to a warm room.
≥
When this unit is moved from an
air-conditioned car to outside.
≥
When a cold room has been warmed up
quickly.
≥
When cool wind from an air conditioner is
directly blown onto this unit.
≥
After summer afternoon showers of rain.
≥
When this unit is in a very humid place where
the air is thick with steam. (e.g. a heated
swimming pool)
When this unit is taken to a location with a
significant temperature difference such as
from a cold place to a hot place.
If, for example, you have used this unit for
recording on a ski slope and are taking it into a
heated room, place the unit inside a plastic
bag, remove as much of the air from inside the
bag as possible, then seal the bag. Leave the
unit for about an hour in the room so the
temperature of the unit is close to the ambient
temperature of the room, then use it.
What to do with the lens is fogged
up.
Remove the battery or AC adaptor and leave
the unit for about 1 hour. When the unit
becomes close to the ambient temperature, the
fog disappears naturally.
About the SD card
LCD monitor/viewfinder
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor
screen featuring a total of approximately
105,000 pixels. The result is more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of
the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this
is not a malfunction and does not affect the
recorded picture.
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the viewfinder screen
featuring a total of approximately 123,000
pixels. The result is more than 99.99%
effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the
pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is
not a malfunction and does not affect the
recorded picture.
