About this manual, illustrations and
on-screen displays
The example images used in this manual for
illustration purposes are captured using a
digital still camera, and therefore may appear
different from images and screen indicators that
actually appear on your camcorder. And, the
illustrations of your camcorder and its screen
indication are exaggerated or simplified for
understandability.
In this manual, the hard disk of the camcorder
and the memory card are called “recording
media.”
In this manual, the DVD disc recorded with
high definition image quality (HD) is called
AVCHD recording disc.

On the drop sensor
To protect the internal hard disk from shock
by dropping, the camcorder has a drop
sensor function. When a drop occurs, or
under a nongravity condition, the block noise
made when this function is activated by the
camcorder may also be recorded. If the drop
sensor catches a drop repeatedly, recording/
playback may be stopped.
Note on using the camcorder at high
altitudes
Do not turn on the camcorder in a low-pressure
area, where the altitude is more than 5,000
meters (16,000 feet). Doing so may damage the
internal hard disk drive of your camcorder.
