Be careful not to drop the lens or camcorder when mounting or removing the lens.
Avoid direct sunlight or strong light sources when mounting or removing the lens.
The XL mount is not compatible with the VL mount.
If you set the

dial to a recording mode without a lens attached, the lens warning icon

“LENS” will flash in red on the screen.

Do not touch the lens, lens mount and the interior of the mount, or expose them to dust or dirt.

If necessary, clean the lens with a dry, soft lens-cleaning cloth. Make sure to turn off the
camcorder while cleaning the lens.

Proper operation cannot be guaranteed when recording in HDV standard with lenses that were not

designed for HDV recording. If you attach such a lens to the camcorder, the messages “THIS
LENS HAS NO STILL SHOOTING CAPABILITY” and “HD INCOMPATIBLE LENS” will appear.
