If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside or
outside the camera. This moisture condensation may cause a malfunction of the camera.
If moisture condensation occurs, remove the battery and memory card and leave the battery/memory
card cover open and then leave the camera in a dry place until the moisture has evaporated. Note
that if you attempt to shoot with moisture remaining inside the lens, you will be unable to record clear
images.

What is 1080 60p/50p?

Unlike standard recording modes up to now, which record in an interlacing method, this camera records
using a progressive method. This increases the resolution, and provides a smoother, more realistic
image.

On image data compatibility

The camera conforms with DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) universal standard established
by JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association).
Sony does not guarantee that the camera will play back images recorded or edited with other
equipment, or that other equipment will play back images recorded with the camera.

Devices incompatible with the AVCHD format

This camera also uses MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 Main Profile for MP4 format recording. For this reason,
movies recorded in MP4 format with this camera cannot be played on devices other than those that
support MPEG-4 AVC/H.264.
You can play a high-definition image quality (HD) disc only on AVCHD format playback devices. A
DVD player or DVD recorder cannot play back a disc recorded in high-definition image quality (HD)
because they are not compatible with the AVCHD format. In addition, if you insert a high-definition
image quality (HD) disc recorded in AVCHD format into a DVD player or DVD recorder, you may not
be able to eject the disc.
