Before You Begin
Any problems that occur as a result of any of the following conditions will not be covered
by our warranty.
Be careful that no water, dust or sand enters the camera/recorder.
When you shoot at a scene which contains an extremely bright object such as the sun
or a light source, a bright vertical bar may appear in the picture.
Your camera/recorder is functioning properly, but the solid-state pickup device (CCD)
usually causes this as an inherent characteristic. Try to avoid shooting an excessive
bright object directly.
Be sure not to leave it in a place where the temperature exceeds 120° (49°C), or the
pickup device may be damaged.
Dangerous includes:
• Inside a car with the windows closed and in direct sunshine.
• Near heating appliances.
Do not leave the viewfinder lens facing sunlight for a prolonged period, or the
phosphorescent surface of the cathode ray tube may be damaged.
