Before using the camera
r
Caution regarding laser beams
The MOS sensor may be damaged if the MOS sensor is subjected to light from a laser beam.
Make sure that laser beams do not strike the lens when shooting in an environment where laser devices are used.
r
Note the following points.
f
When preparing to record important images, always shoot some advance test footage to verify that both pictures and sound are being recorded
normally.
f
Should video or audio recording fail due to a malfunction of the camera or the P2 cards used, we will not assume liability for such failure.
r
What to remember when throwing memory cards away or transferring them to others
Formatting memory cards or deleting data using the functions of the camera or a computer will merely change the file management information: it will
not completely erase the data on the cards. When throwing these cards away or transferring them to others, either physically destroy them or use a
data deletion program for computers (commercially available) to completely erase the data. Users are responsible for managing the data stored in their
memory cards.
