Sony DSC-HX400V - Manual (Page 161)

This product also uses MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 Main Profile for MP4 format recording. For this
reason, play back movies recorded in MP4 format with this product on MPEG-4 AVC/H.264
supported devices.
Discs recorded with HD (high definition) image quality can be played back only on AVCHD
format-compatible devices.
DVD-based players or recorders cannot play back HD image quality discs, as they are
incompatible with the AVCHD format. Also, DVD-based players or recorders may fail to eject
HD image quality discs that are recorded using the AVCHD format.
On the monitor and lens
The monitor 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 constantly appear on the monitor.
These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the images in any
way.
Exposing the monitor or lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause a malfunction.
Exercise caution when placing the product near a window or outdoors.
Do not press against the monitor. The monitor may be discolored and that may cause a
malfunction.
Images may trail across on the monitor in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.
If the monitor has drops of water or other liquids on it, wipe it with a soft cloth. If the monitor
stays wet, the surface of the monitor may change or deteriorate. This may cause a
malfunction.
When the battery pack is discharged, the product may shut off while the lens is still
extended. Insert a charged battery pack, then turn the product on again.
Make sure not to bump the lens or subject it to force.
Notes on the flash
