The 20 mm/F1.7 interchangeable lens included in the DMC-GF1C utilises a lens drive system
to realise a compact and bright F1.7 lens. As a result, sound and vibration may occur during
focus operation, but this is not a malfunction.
Operating sounds will be recorded when Auto Focus is performed during Motion Picture
Recording. It is recommended to record with [CONTINUOUS AF] (P103) set to [OFF], if the
sound of operation bothers you
to avoid recording the lens noise.
The 20 mm/F1.7 interchangeable lens included in the DMC-GF1C cannot be set to [AFC].
Note
The flash setting is fixed to [Œ].
Available recording time is displayed when the [REMAINING DISP.] (P130) in the [CUSTOM
MENU] menu is set to [REMAINING TIME].
Refer to P191 for information about the available recording time.
The available recording time displayed on the screen may not decrease regularly.
Depending on the type of the card, the card access indication may appear for a while after
recording motion pictures. This is not a malfunction.
The operational sound of the zoom or button operation may be recorded when it is operated
during the recording of a motion picture.
Audio will not be recorded for 0.5 seconds after it starts recording if it is kept pressed. Release
the motion picture button right after you press it.
The screen may be blacked out momentarily, or the unit may record noise due to static
electricity or electromagnetic waves etc. depending on the environment of the motion picture
recording.
When operating the zoom when recording motion pictures, it may take time to come into focus.
If The Extra Optical Zoom was used before pressing the motion picture button, those settings
will be cleared, so the focus range will change dramatically.
When the aspect ratio setting is different in still and motion pictures, the angle of view changes
at the start of motion picture recording. When [ REC AREA] (P130) is set to [ ], angle of
view during motion picture recording is displayed.
The ISO sensitivity will be set to [AUTO] when recording motion pictures.
When recording motion pictures, [STABILIZER] (Only available when a lens that supports the
