Notes on use

Refer to “Precautions“ in the “Help Guide” as well.

Notes on handling the product

• This camera is designed to be dust- and moisture-resistant, but is not waterproof or dust-proof.
• Do not leave the lens exposed to a strong light source such as sunlight. Because of the lens’s condensing function, doing so may cause smoke, fire, or a malfunction inside the camera body or the lens.
• If sunlight or other strong light enters the camera through the lens, it may focus inside the camera and cause smoke or fire. Attach the lens cap when storing the camera. When shooting with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently far away from the angle of view. Even if it is slightly away from the angle of view, smoke or fire may still occur.
• Do not directly expose the lens to beams such as laser beams. That may damage the image sensor and cause the camera to malfunction.
• Do not look at sunlight or a strong light source through the lens when it is detached. This may result in unrecoverable damage to the eyes or cause a malfunction.
• This camera (including accessories) has magnet(s) which may interfere with pacemakers, programmable shunt valves for hydrocephalus treatment, or other medical devices. Do not place this camera close to persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using this camera if you use any such medical device.
• This camera is equipped with a magnetic sensor. If the camera is placed too close to a magnet or a device with an internal magnet, the lens may activate. Take care not to place the camera near any magnetic devices.
• Increase the volume gradually. Sudden loud noises can damage your ears. Be especially careful when listening to headphones.
• Do not leave the camera, the supplied accessories, or memory cards within the reach of infants. They may be accidentally swallowed. If this occurs, consult a doctor immediately.

Notes on the monitor

• The monitor is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some small black dots and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the monitor. These are imperfections due to the manufacturing process and do not affect the recorded images in any way.
• If the monitor is damaged, stop using the camera immediately. The damaged parts may harm your hands, face, etc.

Notes on continuous shooting

During continuous shooting, the monitor may flash between the shooting screen and a black screen. If you keep watching the screen in this situation, you may experience uncomfortable symptoms such as feeling of unwellness. If you experience uncomfortable symptoms, stop using the camera, and consult your doctor as necessary.

Notes on recording for long periods of time or recording 4K movies

• The camera body and battery may become warm with use – this is normal.

• If the same part of your skin touches the camera for a long period of time while using the camera, even if the camera does not feel hot to you, it may cause symptoms of a low-temperature burn such as redness or blistering.
  Pay special attention in the following situations and use a tripod, etc.

  • When using the camera in a high temperature environment
  • When someone with poor circulation or impaired skin sensation uses the camera
  • When using the camera with [Auto Power OFF Temp.] set to [High]

Notes on using a tripod

Use a tripod with a screw less than 5.5 mm (7/32 inches) long. Otherwise, you cannot firmly secure the camera, and damage to the camera may occur.

Notes on location information

If you upload and share an image tagged with a location, you may accidentally reveal the information to a third party. To prevent third parties from obtaining your location information, set
[ ****Location Info. Link Set.] to [Off] before shooting images.

Notes on discarding or transferring this product to others

Before discarding or transferring this product to others, be sure to perform the following operation to protect private information.

Notes on discarding or transferring a memory card to others

Executing [Format] or [Delete] on the camera or a computer may not completely delete the data on the memory card. Before transferring a memory card to others, we recommend that you delete the data completely using data deletion software. When discarding a memory card, we recommend that you physically destroy it.

Note on network functions

When you use network functions, unintended third parties on the network may access the camera, depending on the usage environment.
