Notes on using the camcorder under/near water
The touch panel may be activated by water splashes on the screen icons.
The touch panel cannot be operated underwater. Use the buttons of the camcorder to perform
shooting operations.
Do not subject the camcorder to shock such as from jumping into water.
Do not open and close the battery/memory card/jack cover while under/near water.
This camcorder sinks in water. Place your hand through the Wrist strap to prevent the camcorder
from sinking.
Faint, white, circular spots may appear in under-water flash photos due to reflections off of floating
objects. This is not a malfunction.
Select
(Underwater) in Scene Selection to shoot underwater with less distortion.
If water drops or other foreign matter is present on the lens, you will not be able to record clear
images.
