LCD Monitor
≥In a place with drastic temperature changes, condensation may form on the LCD Monitor. Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥If your Movie Camera is extremely cold when you turn its power on, the image on the LCD Monitor is slightly darker than usual at first.
However, as the internal temperature increases, it goes back to the normal brightness.
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD Monitor screen featuring a total of approximately 200,000 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.

≥Do not direct the Viewfinder or Lens to the sun. Internal components may be seriously damaged.
≥To clean the inside of the Viewfinder, keep pressing 1 and hold the Eyecup 2 and pull it out.
