Depending on the type of the card, the card access indication may appear for a while after

When motion pictures recorded with the camera are played back on other equipment, the 
quality of the picture and sound may deteriorate and it may not be possible to play them back. 
Also the recording information may not be displayed correctly.
Sound from motion pictures or pictures with audio recorded by this camera cannot be played 
back by older models of Panasonic digital camera (LUMIX) launched before July 2008.

We recommend you use a battery with sufficient battery power or the AC adaptor when 
recording motion pictures.
If while recording motion pictures using the AC adaptor the power supply is cut off due to a 
power cut or if the AC adaptor is disconnected etc., the motion picture being recorded will not 
be recorded.
The operational sound of the zoom or button operation may be recorded when it is operated 
during the recording of a motion picture.
When operating the zoom in recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus.
Zoom speed may be slower than normal.
