After use, be sure to remove the card from the Camcorder for storage.

After use, or when storing or carrying the card, put it in the storage case.

Do not allow dust, water, or foreign substances to adhere to the terminals on the back of the

card. Moreover, do not touch the terminals with your hand.

Keep the Memory Card out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

Folder structure of the card

(PV-GS85 only)

The folder structure of the card formatted by the Camcorder will be displayed on the PC as the illustration below.

LCD monitor/viewflnder LCD monitor

When the LCD monitor gets dirty, wipe it with a dry soft cloth.

In a place with drastic temperature changes, condensation may form on the LCD monitor. Wipe it with soft dry cloth.

If your Camcorder is extremely cold, the LCD monitor is slightly darker than usual immediately after you turn the power on. However, as the internal temperature increases, it goes back to normal brightness.

Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor screen featuring a total of approximately 123,000 pixels. The result is more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of

the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a malfunction and does not affect

the recorded picture.

Viewfinder

Up to 999 pictures can be recorded on 100CDPFP folder etc.

Files with the DPOF settings can be recorded on MISC folder.

Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the viewfinder screen featuring a total of approximately 113,000 pixels. The result is more than 99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of the

pixels inactive or always lit. However, this is not a malfunction and does not affect the

recorded picture.

Periodical check-ups

To maintain the highest image quality, we recommend replacing worn parts such as heads after approx. 1000 hours of use. (This, however, depends on operating conditions including temperature, humidity and dust.)
