IMPORTANT!

Pressing [ON/OFF] or [] (REC) to turn on power also causes the lens to extend. Take care there is nothing pressing against or hitting the lens. Holding the lens with your hand so it cannot extend creates the risk of malfunction.

NOTE

Pressing [ ] (PLAY) while in the REC mode switches to the PLAY mode. The lens retracts about 10 seconds after switching modes.

Auto Power Off (page 44) will turn off power automatically if you do not perform any operation for a preset amount of time. If this happens, turn power back on.

Turning Power Off

Press [ON/OFF] (Power).

NOTE

You can configure the camera so power does not turn on

when you press [] (REC) or [ ] (PLAY). You can also configure the camera to turn off when you press [] (REC) or [ ] (PLAY) (page 192).
