• The indicator lamp lights while movies are being recorded. Do not open the battery chamber during shooting
or while the indicator lamp is lit. Failure to observe this precaution could prevent the movie from being played
back.
• Vertical or horizontal streaks may appear in movies containing very bright subjects. This is normal and does not
indicate a malfunction.
• The temperature of the camera may rise if it is used to record movies for an extended period or if the ambient
temperature is high. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
