ATTACHING THE OPTIONAL DC CAMERA LIGHT (VM-CP4)
Use the DC camera light if you wish to shoot objects in dark places.
CAUTION: The front and lamp of the DC camera light become very hot during use of the camera
light or immediately after use. Be careful that your hand or hair does not touch them.
NOTES:
• When the DC camera light is used, the operation time of the camera/recorder becomes short even
if a fully-charged battry pack is attached.
• When the camera/recorder is turned on, a voltage is always generated at the installation terminal
of the DC camera light. Never touch this terminal.
1. Make sure that a fully charged battery pack or AC adapter/charger is attached.
2. Check that the camera/recorder is turned off.
3. Attach the DC camera light to the camera light shoe.
4. Turn on power of the camera/recorder and then press operate button of the DC camera light
when required.
NOTE: Turn on the camera light only when you need it because the operation time of the battery
pack becomes shorter when the light is on.
5. To remove the camera light, depress the light to release the tab from the hook and then move
the light in the direction of the arrow.
NOTES:
• Never touch the terminal of the DC camera light with your hand or short it using metal.
• When the camera light is on, do not allow water to drop on the light.
• When the camera light is on, avoid subjecting the camera light to impacts or sharp vibrations.
• Do not allow the cooling vents to become blocked. Also, do not cover the camera light with paper
or other objects, since the air flow will be interrupted, resulting in possible overheating hazard.
• Never use the camera light in the vicinity of explosive or highly inflammable materials.
• When storing the camera light in the camera case following use, be sure to allow it sufficient time
to fully cool down before placing it in the case.
• Replace only with VM-CP4L lamp (optional accessory), to reduce the risk of fire.
