When powered by a battery pack, the camcorder shuts off after 5 minutes
when the camcorder is left without any operation to save power ( 67).
Approximately 30 seconds before the camcorder shuts off, “ AUTO
POWER OFF” appears in the center of the screen. If the camcorder shuts
off, turn the power switch to OFF and back on again.
About the LCD and viewfinder screen: The screens are produced with
extremely high-precision manufacturing techniques, with more than
99.99% of the pixels operating to specification. Less than 0.01% of the
pixels may occasionally misfire or appear as black or green dots. This has
no effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
