Menu items, viewfinder, and lens
A menu item that is grayed out is not available

conditions.
The viewfinder is manufactured using
extremely high precision technology, so over
99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some tiny black
points and/or bright points (white, red, blue,
or green in color) that appear constantly in the
viewfinder. These points are normal results of
the manufacturing process and do not affect the
recording in any way.
Exposing the viewfinder or the lens to direct
sunlight for long periods of time may cause
malfunctions.
Do not aim at the sun. Doing so might cause
this product to malfunction. Take images of the
sun only in low light conditions, such as at dusk.
