Read this first

Trial recording

Before you record one-time events, you may want

to make a trial recording to make sure that the

camera is working correctly.

No compensation for contents of the

recording

Contents of the recording cannot be compensated

for if recording or playback is not possible due to

a malfunction of your camera or recording media,

etc.

Back up recommendation

To avoid the potential risk of data loss, always

copy (back up) data to a disk.

Notes on image data compatibility

· This camera conforms with the Design rule for

Camera File system universal standard

established by the JEITA (Japan Electronics

and Information Technology Industries

Association).

· Playback of images recorded with your camera

on other equipment and playback of images

recorded or edited with other equipment on

your camera are not guaranteed.

Precaution on copyright

Television programs, films, video tapes, and other

materials may be copyrighted. Unauthorized

recording of such materials may be contrary to

the provision of the copyright laws.

Do not shake or strike the camera

In addition to malfunctions and inability to record

images, this may render the "Memory Stick"

unusable or image data breakdown, damage or

loss may occur.

LCD screen, LCD finder (only models

with an LCD finder) and lens

· The LCD screen and the LCD finder are

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 LCD screen and the

LCD finder. These points are normal in the

manufacturing process and do not affect the

recording in any way.

· Be careful when placing the camera near a

window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD screen,

the finder or the lens to direct sunlight for long

periods may cause malfunctions.

· Do not press the LCD screen hardly. The screen

may be uneven and that may cause a

malfunction.

· Images may be trailed on the LCD screen in a

cold location. This is not a malfunction.

The power zoom lens

This camera is equipped with a power zoom lens.

Be careful not to bump the lens, and be careful

not to apply force to it.

Clean the flash surface before use

The heat of flash emission may cause dirt on the

flash surface to become discolored or to stick to

the flash surface, resulting in insufficient light

emission.

Do not get the camera wet

When taking pictures outdoors in the rain or

under similar conditions, be careful not to get the

camera wet. Water entering the inside of the

camera may cause malfunctions which in some

cases may not be repairable. If moisture

condensation occurs, see page 116 and follow the

instructions on how to remove it before using the

camera.

Do not expose the camera to sand or

dust

Using the camera in sandy or dusty locations may

cause malfunction.

Do not aim the camera at the sun or

other bright light

This may cause irrecoverable damage to your

eyes. Or it may cause the malfunction of your

camera.

Notes on the camera locations

Do not use the camera near a location that

generates strong radio wave or emits radiation.

The camera may not be able to record or play

back properly.
