• Depending on the lens used, picture may be warped slightly or you may see colors along the
edge depending on the zoom factor, due to the characteristics of the lens. Also, the peripherals
of the image might look warped because the perspective is enhanced when the wide angle is
used. This is not a malfunction.
• The Optical Image Stabilizer function of the interchangeable lens (H-PS14042, H-FS014042)
only works correctly with supported cameras.
> When older Panasonic digital cameras (DMC-GF1, DMC-GH1, DMC-G1) are used,
[Stabilizer] in the [Rec] menu (P74) cannot be set to [OFF]. It is recommended to update
the firmware of the digital camera at the following website.

> When using this lens with another make of digital cameras, the Optical Image Stabilizer
function will not work. (As of April 2012)
For details, contact the respective company.
• Is the flash closed?
> Press the [ OPEN] button to open the flash. (P79)
• The flash is activated 2 times. The interval between the first and second flash is longer when
Red-Eye Reduction (P79) is set so the subject should not move until the second flash is
activated.

When the lens is attached to another digital camera, stabilizer function cannot be
