Helpful hint
If, for example, you have used this unit for
recording on a ski slope and are taking it into a
heated room, place the unit inside a plastic bag,
remove as much of the air from inside the bag as
possible, then seal the bag. Leave the unit for
about an hour in the room so the temperature of
the unit is close to the ambient temperature of
the room, then use it.

LCD monitor/viewfinder
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor screen
featuring a total of approximately
230,000 pixels. The result is more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of
the pixels inactive or always lit. However, this
is not a malfunction and does not affect the
recorded picture.
