If battery power is exhausted while the camera and the PC are communicating, the recorded data may be damaged. When you connect the camera to the PC, use a battery with sufficient battery power (P12) or the AC adaptor (DMW-AC7; optional).

If the remaining battery power becomes low while the camera and the PC are communicating, the status indicator blinks and the alarm beeps. In this case, stop the communication at once on the PC.

When connecting the camera to a Windows 2000 OS PC with the USB connection cable, do not replace the card while the camera and the PC are connected. The information on the card may be damaged. Disconnect the USB connection cable before replacing the card.

Pictures edited or rotated with a PC may be displayed in black in playback mode (P35), multi playback (P70) and calendar playback (P71).

For information about this, refer to the separate operating instructions for PC connection.
