Notes on the battery pack
• Charge the battery pack (supplied) before using

pack functions.

lens which is capable of reproducing sharp

The lens for the camera has been produced
under a quality assurance system certified
by Carl Zeiss in accordance with the quality
standards of Carl Zeiss in Germany.
Notes on the LCD screen, the LCD finder
and lens
• The LCD screen and the LCD finder are
manufactured using extremely high-precision
technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are
operational for effective use. However, some
tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or
green) may appear on the LCD screen or the
LCD finder. These dots are a normal result of
the manufacturing process, and do not affect the
recording.
• Do not hold the camera by taking hold of the
LCD screen.
• Exposing the LCD screen, the LCD finder or the
lens to direct sunlight for long periods may
cause malfunctions. Be careful when placing the
camera near a window or outdoors.
• Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen
may be discolored and that may cause a
malfunction.
• Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a
cold location. This is not a malfunction.
