Notes on use
Refer to “Precautions“ in the “Help Guide”
as well.
Notes on handling the product
• The camera is neither dust-proof, nor
splash-proof, nor water-proof.
• Remove any dirt from the surface of
the flash. Dirt on the surface of the
flash may emit smoke or burn due to
heat generated by the emission of
light. If there is dirt/dust, clean it off
with a soft cloth.
• Do not leave the lens or the viewfinder
exposed to a strong light source such
as sunlight. Because of the lens’s
condensing function, doing so may
cause smoke, fire, or a malfunction
inside the camera body or the lens.
• When you shoot with backlighting,
keep the sun sufficiently far away
from the angle of view. Otherwise, the
sunlight may enter the focus inside the
camera and cause smoke or fire. Even if
the sun is slightly away from the angle
of view, it may still cause smoke or fire.
• Do not leave the camera, the supplied
accessories, or memory cards within
the reach of infants. They may be
accidentally swallowed. If this occurs,
consult a doctor immediately.
Notes on the monitor and electronic
viewfinder
• The monitor and electronic viewfinder
are manufactured using extremely
high-precision technology, and over
99.99% of the pixels are operational for
effective use. However, there may be
some small black dots and/or bright
dots (white, red, blue or green in color)
that constantly appear on the monitor.
These are imperfections due to the
manufacturing process and do not
affect the recorded images in any way.
• When shooting with the viewfinder,
you may experience symptoms such as
eyestrain, fatigue, motion sickness, or
nausea. We recommend that you take a
break at regular intervals when you are
shooting with the viewfinder.
• If the monitor or electronic viewfinder
is damaged, stop using the camera
immediately. The damaged parts may
harm your hands, face, etc.
Notes on continuous shooting
During continuous shooting, the monitor
or viewfinder may flash between the
shooting screen and a black screen.
If you keep watching the screen in
this situation, you may experience
uncomfortable symptoms such as
feeling of unwellness. If you experience
uncomfortable symptoms, stop using
the camera, and consult your doctor as
necessary.
Notes on recording for long periods of
time or recording 4K movies
• Depending on the camera and
battery temperature, the camera may
become unable to record movies or
the power may turn off automatically
to protect the camera. A message will
be displayed on the screen before the
power turns off or you can no longer
record movies. In this case, leave the
power off and wait until the camera
and battery temperature goes down.
If you turn on the power without
letting the camera and battery cool
sufficiently, the power may turn off
again, or you may still be unable to
record movies.
• The camera body and battery may
become warm with use – this is normal.
• If the same part of your skin touches
the camera for a long period of time
while using the camera, even if the
camera does not feel hot to you, it may
cause symptoms of a low-temperature
burn such as redness or blistering.
Pay special attention in the following
situations and use a tripod, etc.
- When using the camera in a high
temperature environment
- When someone with poor circulation
or impaired skin sensation uses the
camera
- When using the camera with
[Auto Power OFF Temp.] set to [High]
Notes on using a tripod
Use a tripod with a screw less than
5.5mm (7/32 inches) long. Otherwise,
you cannot firmly secure the camera, and
damage to the camera may occur.
