Getting Started
3D Display on the LCD Monitor
The LCD monitor supports 3D images during both recording and playback. Press the “3D/2D” button on the touch screen to change the display on the LCD monitor between 3D and 2D.
0When using the 3D recording mode, the image will be recorded in 3D even if the display on the LCD monitor is set to 2D.
03D effect appears stronger when viewed at approximately 30 cm
03D effect may be weak if viewed from an angle other than the front.
0The LCD monitor appears darker when 3D images are displayed. Change the display to 2D when it is difficult to see, such as when using this unit outdoors.
Caution :
0Recording and viewing of the 3D images is not recommended for people with medical history of photosensitivity, heart diseases, feel sick, suffer from lack of sleep, suffer from fatigue, or are drunk.
Medical conditions may worsen.
0Do not shoot a subject from a distance shorter than the minimum shooting distance.
The 3D effect may become stronger and result in fatigue or discomfort.
The minimum shooting distance of this camera is 80 cm
0Be careful not to shake the camera during recording.
Excessive shaking while riding in a vehicle or during walking may result in fatigue or discomfort.
To perform recording while moving the camera, keep the speed slow and steady.
Keep the camera in a horizontal position, as much as possible, during recording.
0If you have vision problems such as
Stop recording or viewing of the 3D images if you see double images.
3D images may appear differently for different people. Correct your vision appropriately before viewing the 3D images.
0Stop recording or viewing of the 3D images if you experience fatigue or discomfort.
Continual recording or viewing of the 3D images may result in health problems. Take an adequate rest.
Recording or viewing of the 3D images in an environment where shaking of the monitor is expected, such as while riding in a vehicle or during walking, may result in fatigue or discomfort.
0If you experience fatigue or discomfort while recording or viewing of the 3D images on the LCD monitor, set the display to 2D. Continual recording and viewing of the 3D images may result in health problems.
0Rest well after recording or viewing of the 3D images.
After recording or viewing of the 3D images, check that you do not experience fatigue or discomfort before driving, etc.
0Take a break every 30 to 60 minutes when recording or viewing of the 3D images. Long periods of recording or viewing may cause visual fatigue.
0Keep a distance of at least 3 times the effective height of the screen when viewing of the 3D images on a 3D compatible TV. Viewing of the 3D images from a distance shorter than the recommended distance may cause visual fatigue.

0Recording and viewing of the 3D images is only recommended for ages 5 to 6 and above.
Guardians should pay close attention to children as health problems may result if fatigue and discomfort are not noticed immediately.
3D Effect Mechanism
3D images on the LCD monitor of this unit are displayed using the parallax barrier system. Placed in front of an image source, a parallax barrier consists of a series of slits arranged alternately for the left and right eyes, allowing each eye to see a different image when viewing from a distance, thus creating the 3D effect. As such, 3D effect may appear weak depending on the angle of viewing.
