existing log is saved to the SD Memory Card as a log file (p.10) or 
discarded (p.12).

Calibration is the process of making adjustments to a device in order to

•  During movie recording
•  During movie playback
•  During slideshow
•  When 

 (Interval Shot) or

• Do not swing or twirl the camera while changing your grip on it. 
• If calibration is unsuccessful, face in a different direction and/or slightly 

change the angle of grip, and then try calibration again.

• The electronic compass may not show the proper direction due to the 

passing of time, or the change of the camera location. We recommend 
periodically calibrating the camera.

• Calibration can be done regardless of the GPS signal reception status.
• At locations that are strongly affected by environmental magnetism, it 

may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the electronic 
compass may not show the proper direction even if calibration is 
completed. The same may result when the camera is calibrated 
indoors. 

• At locations that are affected by geomagnetism, such as in volcanic 

regions, it may be difficult to achieve successful calibration, or the 
electronic compass may not show the proper direction even if 
calibration is completed.

• If you cannot calibrate the camera within one minute of rotating the 

camera in three directions, the process will fail and the message 
[Cannot process correctly] appears. If this happens, try calibration 
again.
