Notes

•Charge the supplied NP-FT1 battery pack before using the camera for the first time.

•The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the recording in any way.

Hook	• The camera is a precision instrument. Be careful not
	to bump the lens or the LCD screen, and not to apply
	force to it. Attach the strap to prevent the camera
	from damage by being dropped, etc.
