Cautions when handling the cards
i
The cards are precision devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject them to
strong forces or shocks.
i
Avoid using or storing the cards in places with extremely high or low
temperatures, subject to direct sunlight, in a completely closed vehicle,
near air conditioners or heaters, or in humid or dusty locations.
i
Avoid using or storing the cards in locations where strong static electrical
charges or electrical noise can be easily generated.
i
Do not allow the edges of the cards to become contaminated with foreign
materials. Gently wipe away any contamination with a soft, dry cloth.
i
Do not carry the cards in trouser pockets, as the cards may become
damaged when you sit down or make other movements that may apply
forces.
i
Before using a new card or a card that was used in other equipment, be
sure to format it using the camera (see “FORMATTING A CARD” on page
129).
i
When buying commercially available products, carefully read the
instructions and warnings that come with the card.
i
An SD Memory Card is not included with Model VPC-C4GX.

Caution concerning high temperatures
i
During shooting, when the internal temperature of the camera becomes
high, the
\
icon will appear on the LCD monitor. When the
\
icon
appears, it is still possible to capture and play back images for a while.
However, if the temperature rises further, it will become impossible to
record (although playback will still be possible). In this case, discontinue
shooting as soon as possible, and wait until the temperature falls before
using the camera again.
Note that particularly when shooting video clips, soon after the
\
icon
appears, the remaining shooting time indication will appear, and when that
figure becomes 00:00:00, further shooting is impossible.
