Other Useful Information
LCD Monitor
≥
In places where big changes in temperature
occur, condensation may form on the LCD
Monitor. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
≥
When the Movie Camera is very cold when
turning it on, the picture on the LCD Monitor is
darker than normally. However, as it reaches
normal temperature, it regains its normal
brightness.
≥
To remove fingerprints, wipe the LCD Monitor
with a soft cloth.
≥
Do not expose the LCD Monitor to direct
sunlight. When sunlight falls onto the LCD
Monitor, it may be difficult to view the picture.
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor. 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.
Viewfinder
≥
Do not leave the Viewfinder or the Lens aimed
at the sun. This could seriously damage
internal parts.
Cleaning the Viewfinder
1
Push the Buttons on both sides of the
Viewfinder and remove it in the direction
of the arrow.
2
Remove dust with a blower brush (not
supplied).
If you use a cotton swab or similar to clean
the inside of the Viewfinder, use it very
carefully to prevent scratching the screen
inside the Viewfinder.
3
To re-attach the Viewfinder, push it
forward onto the Viewfinder Tube until it
locks with a click.
Lens Hood
≥
When you want to attach the Tele Conversion
Lens (VW-LT4314WE, optional), the Wide
Conversion Lens (VW-LW4307WE, optional) or a
filter of the Filter Kit (VW-LF43WE, optional), be
sure to first remove the Lens Hood by turning it
counterclockwise. If you attach a filter of the
Filter Kit, you can attach the Lens Hood onto it.
≥
During recording with a filter or conversions lens
attached, the four corners of the picture may
become dark (vignetting effect), when you push
the [W/T] Zoom Lever toward [W]. For details,
please also read the operating instructions of the
accessory being used.
Attaching the Shoulder Strap
Before you go recording outside, we recommend
that you attach the Shoulder Strap to prevent the
Movie Camera from dropping accidentally.
1
Pull the end of the Shoulder Strap through
the Shoulder Strap Holder on the Movie
Camera.
2
Fold the end of the Shoulder Strap back and
pull it through the Shoulder Strap Length
Adjuster so that it stands out more than
2 cm
1
to prevent it from slipping off.
