 About the LCD and viewfinder screen: The screens are produced with 
extremely high-precision manufacturing techniques, with more than 
99.99% of the pixels operating to specification. Less than 0.01% of the 
pixels may occasionally misfire or appear as black or green dots. This has 
no effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
Before You Begin Recording
