About the Power Save mode: In order to save power when the camcorder is
powered by a battery pack, the camcorder will automatically shut off if left
without any operations for 5 minutes ( 84). To restore the power, slide the
power switch towards MODE and release it, or move the power switch to
and back to ON.
About the LCD and viewfinder screen: The screens are produced using
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, red, blue or green dots. This has no
effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
When using a tripod: Do not leave the viewfinder
exposed to direct sunlight as it may melt (due to
concentration of the light by the lens).
Do not use tripods with fastening screws longer than
5.5 mm (0.2 inch). Doing so may damage the camcorder.
