These specifications are subject to change without notice. FUJIFILM shall not be held liable for
damages resulting from errors in this Owner’s Manual.

The LCD monitor on your digital camera is manufactured using advanced high-precision technology.
Even so, small bright points and anomalous colors (particularly around text) may appear on the
monitor. These are normal display characteristics and do not indicate a fault with the monitor. This
phenomenon will not appear on the recorded image.

The operation error may be caused in a digital camera by the strong radio interference (i. e. electric
fields, static electricity, line noise, etc.).

Due to the nature of the lens, the edges of photographed images may appear distorted. This is
normal and does not indicate a fault.
