GB

• Clean the flash surface before use. The
heat of flash emission may cause dirt on
the flash surface to start smoking or
burning. Wipe the flash surface with a
soft cloth to remove dirt or dust, etc.
Carl Zeiss lens
The camera is equipped with a Carl Zeiss
lens which is capable of reproducing sharp
images with excellent contrast. The lens for
the camera has been produced under a
quality assurance system certified by Carl
Zeiss in accordance with the quality
standards of Carl Zeiss in Germany.
Notes on the flash
• Do not carry the camera by the flash unit,
or use excessive strength on it.
• If water, dust or sand get into the open
flash unit, it may cause a malfunction.
No compensation for damaged
content or recording failure
Sony cannot compensate for failure to
record or loss or damage of recorded
content due to a malfunction of the camera
or recording media, etc.
Back up recommendation
To avoid the data loss, always copy (back
up) data to other media.
Notes on the LCD screen, lens, and
image sensor
• The screen is manufactured using
extremely high-precision technology so
over 99.99% of the pixels are operational
for effective use. However, some tiny
black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue
or green) may appear on the screen.
These dots are a normal result of the
manufacturing process, and do not affect
the recording.
• Do not expose the camera to sunlight or
shoot sunward for a long time. The
internal mechanism may be damaged. If
sunlight is focused on a nearby object, it
may cause a fire.
• Images may trail across on the screen in a
cold location. This is not a malfunction.
When turning on the camera in a cold
location, the screen may become
temporarily dark. When the camera
warms up, the screen will function
normally.
• The recorded image may be different
from the image you monitored before
recording.
Notes on recording for long periods
of time
• When you continue to shoot for a long
time, the temperature of the camera rises.
If the temperature rises above a certain
level, the
icon appears on the screen
and the camera turns itself off
automatically. If the power is turned off,
leave the camera for 10 minutes or longer
to allow the temperature inside the
camera to decrease to a safe level.
• Under high ambient temperatures, the
temperature of the camera rises quickly.
• When the temperature of the camera
rises, the image quality may deteriorate.
It is recommended that you wait until the
temperature of the camera drops before
continuing to shoot.
• Your camera and battery may get hot due
to continuous use, but it is not a
malfunction.
On image data compatibility
• This camera conforms with DCF (Design
rule for Camera File system) universal
standard established by JEITA (Japan
Electronics and Information Technology
Industries Association).
