ª LCD Monitor/Viewfinder/Lens Hood
LCD Monitor
≥In a place with drastic temperature changes, 
condensation may form on the LCD Monitor. 
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥If your Movie Camera is extremely cold when 
you turn its power on, the image on the LCD 
Monitor is slightly darker than usual at first. 
However, as the internal temperature increases, 
it goes back to the normal brightness.
Viewfinder
≥Do not direct the Viewfinder or Lens to the sun. 
Internal components may be seriously 
damaged.
≥When the Movie Camera is used with a large 
capacity Battery (CGA-DU14, CGA-DU21; 
optional) attached to it, it is not practical to look 
in the Viewfinder from behind the Battery.
Lens Hood
≥Do not attach other conversion lenses in front of 
the Lens Hood; there is no mount to be used for 
the attachment.
≥When you wish to attach the Tele Conversion 
Lens (VW-LT2714N2E; optional), Wide 
Conversion Lens (VW-LW2707N2E; optional), 
MC Protector (VW-LMC27E; optional), or ND 
Filter (VW-LND27E; optional), first of all, turn 
the Lens Hood counterclockwise. If the MC 
Protector or ND Filter is used, the Lens Hood 
can be mounted on the filter.
≥If you push the [W/T] Lever toward [W] during 
recording with the filter and conversion lens 
attached together to the Movie Camera, 
4 corners of the image may become dark 
(vignetting). For details, please refer to the 
operating instructions of your accessories.
Extremely high precision technology is 
employed to produce the LCD Monitor 
screen featuring a total of approximately 
123,000 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.
Extremely high precision technology is 
employed to produce the Viewfinder screen 
featuring a total of approximately 67,500 
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.
≥Be sure to keep the Lens Hood attached to the 
Movie Camera so as to shut out unnecessary 
light.
