Pentax 8572, 8557, 8587, 8542 specifications Appendix

• Do not swing or twirl the camera while changing your grip on it.

•If calibration is unsuccessful, face in a different direction and/or slightly change the angle of grip, and then try calibration again.

•The electronic compass may not show the proper direction due to the passing of time, or the change of the camera location. We recommend periodically calibrating the camera.

•Calibration can be done regardless of the GPS signal reception status.

•At locations that are strongly affected by environmental magnetism, it may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the electronic compass may not show the proper direction even if calibration is completed. The same may result when the camera is calibrated indoors.

•At locations that are affected by geomagnetism, such as in volcanic regions, it may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the electronic compass may not show the proper direction even if calibration is completed.

•If you cannot calibrate the camera within one minute of rotating the camera in three directions, the process will fail and the message [Cannot process correctly] appears. If this happens, try calibration again.
