The temperature of your camcorder is

extremely low. Turn off your camcorder and

take it to a warm place. Leave the camcorder

there for a while, then turn on the camcorder.

There is a time difference between the

point when START/STOP is pressed and

the point that the recording movie is

started or stopped actually.

On your camcorder, there may be a slight

time difference between the point where you

press START/STOP and the actual point that

recording movie starts/stops. This is not a

malfunction.

Photo shooting is slow.

The noise reduction function is working. This

is not a malfunction.

The horizontal to vertical ratio of the

movie (16:9 (wide)/4:3) cannot be

changed.

The horizontal to vertical ratio of high

definition image quality (HD) movies is 16:9

(wide).

The auto focus does not function.

The subject is too close. Check the minimum

shooting distance of the lens.

Ambient light is insufficient.

The recording conditions are not suitable for

auto focus. Adjust the focus manually (p. 40).

Fuzzy white circular spots appear on

images shot using a flash.

Particles (dust, pollen, etc.) in the air reflected

the flash light and appeared on the image. This

is not a malfunction.

The image taken with flash is too dark.

If the subject is beyond the flash range (the

distance that the flash can reach), the pictures

will be dark because the flash light does not

reach the subject. If the ISO is changed, the

flash range also changes with it.

The subjects passing by the screen very

fast appear crooked.

This is called the focal plane phenomenon.

This is not a malfunction. Because of the way

the image device (CMOS sensor) reads out

image signals, the subjects passing by the lens

rapidly might appear crooked depending on

the recording conditions.

Horizontal stripes appear on the images.

This occurs when recording images under a

fluorescent lamp, sodium lamp, or mercury

lamp. This is not a malfunction.

It may be eliminated by adjusting Shutter

Speed.

Black bands appear when you record a TV

screen or computer screen.
