images may be lost or other malfunctions could
occur.
Remove the “Memory Stick PRO Duo.”
Remove the battery pack or AC Adaptor from
the camcorder.
Apply mechanical shock or vibration to the
camcorder.
When connecting your camcorder to another
device with a cable, be sure to insert the
connector plug in the correct way. Pushing the
plug forcibly into the terminal will damage the
terminal and may result in a malfunction of
your camcorder.
Do not apply shock or vibration to your
camcorder. The hard disk of the camcorder may
not be recognized, or recording or playback
may not be possible.
Do not use your camcorder in very loud areas.
The hard disk of the camcorder may not be
recognized, or recording may not be possible.
To protect the internal hard disk from shock
by dropping, the camcorder has drop sensor
function*. When a drop occurs, or under a non-
gravity 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/play back may be
stopped.
When the temperature of the camcorder
becomes extremely high or extremely low, you
may not be able to record or play back on the
camcorder, due to the protection features of the
camcorder being activated in such situations.
In this case, an indicator appears on the LCD
screen (p. 30).
Do not turn on the camcorder in a low-pressure
area, where the altitude is more than 3,000
meters (9,800 feet). Doing so may damage the
hard disk drive of your camcorder.
If you repeat recording/deleting images for a
long time, fragmentation of data occurs on the
media. Images cannot be saved or recorded. In
such a case, save your images on some type of
external media first, and then perform [MEDIA
FORMAT]*.
Fasten the grip belt and hold your camcorder
correctly while recording.
To adjust the LCD panel, open the LCD panel
90 degrees to the camcorder (), then rotate it
to the best angle to record or play ().
You can rotate the LCD panel 180 degrees to
the lens side () to record in mirror mode.
The LCD screen is manufactured using
extremely high-precision technology, so over
99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some tiny black
points and/or bright points (white, red, blue,
or green in color) that appear constantly on the
LCD screen. These points are normal results of
the manufacturing process and do not affect the
recording in any way.
Remove the insulation sheet before using the
Remote Commander.
