Notes on recording/playback
• Once you format the memory
card, all the data recorded on
the memory card will be deleted
and cannot be restored. Before
formatting, copy the data to a
computer or other device.
• Before you start recording, make a
trial recording to make sure that the
camera is working correctly.
Notes on handling the product
• This camera is designed to be dust
and moisture-resistant, but is not
waterproof or splash-proof.
• Do not leave the camera, the
supplied accessories, or memory
cards within the reach of infants.
They may be accidentally
swallowed. If this occurs, consult a
doctor immediately.
No compensation for damaged
content or recording failure
Sony can provide no guarantees
in the event of failure to record or
loss or damage of recorded images
or audio data due to a malfunction
of the camera or recording media,
etc. We recommend backing up
important data.
Notes on the monitor, electronic
viewfinder, lens, and image sensor
• The monitor and electronic
viewfinder are manufactured
using extremely high-precision
technology, and over 99.99% of the
pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some
small black dots and/or bright
dots (white, red, blue or green in
color) that constantly appear on the
monitor and electronic viewfinder.
These dots are normal due to the
manufacturing process and do not
affect the images in any way.
• Do not hold the camera by the
monitor.
• When using the power zoom lens,
be careful not to get your fingers
or any other objects caught in the
lens.
• Do not leave the lens or the
viewfinder exposed to a strong light
source such as sunlight. Because
of the lens’s condensing function,
doing so may cause smoke, fire, or
a malfunction inside the camera
body or the lens. If you have to
leave the camera exposed to a light
source such as sunlight, attach the
lens cap to the lens.
• When you shoot with backlighting,
keep the sun sufficiently far away
from the angle of view. Otherwise,
the sunlight may enter the focus
inside the camera and cause smoke
or fire. Even if the sun is slightly
away from the angle of view, it may
still cause smoke or fire.
