LCD screen, LCD finder (only
models with a finder) and lens
• The LCD screen and the LCD finder are
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 constantly
appear on the LCD screen and the LCD
finder. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and do not affect
the recording in any way.
• Be careful when placing the camera near a
window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD
screen, the finder or the lens to direct
sunlight for long periods may cause
malfunctions.

they may be hot after the camera is used for
long periods.
