Notes on the battery pack
• Charge the battery pack (supplied) before using 
the camera for the first time.
• The battery pack can be charged even if it is not 
completely discharged. Also, even if the battery 
pack is not fully charged, you can use the 
partially charged capacity of the battery pack as 
is.
• If you do not intend to use the battery pack for a 
long time, use up the existing charge and 
remove it from your camera, then store it in a 
cool, dry place. This is to maintain the battery 
pack functions.

Carl Zeiss lens
This camera is equipped with a Carl Zeiss 
lens which is capable of reproducing sharp 
images with excellent contrast.
The lens for this 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 LCD screen and lens
• The LCD screen 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 LCD screen. These points are normal in the 
manufacturing process and do not affect the 
recording in any way.
• Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct 
sunlight for long periods may cause 
malfunctions. Be careful when placing the 
camera near a window or outdoors.
• Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen 
may be discolored and that may cause a 
malfunction.
• Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a 
cold location. This is not a malfunction.
• Be careful not to bump the movable lens, and be 
careful not to apply force to it.
