Notes on using your camera

Shooting procedure

• This camera has 2 modes for monitoring
subjects: the LCD screen mode using the
LCD screen, and the viewfinder mode
using the viewfinder.

• The recorded image may be different
from the image you monitored before
recording.

Notes on the functions available with
the camera

• To check whether it is a 1080 60i­compatible device or 1080 50i­compatible device, check for the
following marks on the bottom of the
camera.
1080 60i-compatible device:60i
1080 50i-compatible device:50i

• You may feel uncomfortable symptoms
such as eyestrain, nausea, or a tired
feeling while watching 3D-images
recorded with the camera on 3D­compatible monitors. When you watch
3D-images, we recommend that you take
a break at regular time intervals. Since
the need for or frequency of break times
varies among individuals, please set your
own standards. If you feel sick, stop
watching 3D-images, and consult a
doctor as needed. Also, refer to the
operating instructions of the connected
device or the software used with the
camera. A child’s vision is always
vulnerable (especially for children under
6 years of age). Before allowing them to
watch 3D-images, please consult with an
expert, such as a pediatric or ophthalmic
doctor. Be sure to make sure your
children follow the precautions above.

No compensation for contents of the
recording

The contents of the recording cannot be
compensated for if recording or playback is
not possible due to a malfunction of your
camera or a memory card, etc.

Back up recommendation

To avoid the potential risk of data loss,
always copy (back up) data to other
medium.

Notes on the LCD screen, electronic
viewfinder, lens, and image sensor

• The LCD screen and electronic
viewfinder 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 electronic viewfinder. These points
are normal in the manufacturing process
and do not affect the images in any way.

• Do not hold the camera by taking hold of
the LCD screen.

• Do not expose the camera to sunlight or
shoot sunward for a long time. The
internal mechanism may be damaged. If
sunlight is focused on a nearby object, it
may cause a fire.

• Images may trail across on the screen in a
cold location. This is not a malfunction.
When turning on the camera in a cold
location, the screen may become
temporarily dark. When the camera
warms up, the screen will function
normally.

Notes on long-time recording

• When you continue to shoot for a long
time, the temperature of the camera rises.
If the temperature reaches above a certain
level, the mark is indicated on the
screen and the camera is turned off
automatically. If the power is turned off,
leave the camera for 10 minutes or longer
to allow the temperature inside the
camera to decrease to a safe level.

• Under high ambient temperatures, the
temperature of the camera rises quickly.

• When the temperature of the camera
rises, the image quality may deteriorate.
It is recommended that you wait until the

GB

6

Картинка с сайта: manualmachine.com

temperature of the camera drops before
continuing to shoot.

• The surface of the camera may get warm.
This is not a malfunction.

maximum image quality.
Fit the hood into the mount on the end of
the lens barrel and rotate the hood
clockwise until it clicks.

Notes

• A lens hood is not included with the DT 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 SAM. You can use the

• When storing, turn over the lens hood and place it onto the lens backwards.

Note on changing the lens

When changing the lens, if dust or debris gets inside the camera and
adheres to the surface of the image sensor (the part that acts as the film), it
may appear as dark spots on the image, depending on the shooting
environment.
The camera is equipped with an anti-dust function to prevent dust from
landing on the image sensor. However, quickly change the lens away from
dusty locations when attaching/removing a lens.
