To users of this camera
• Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong
electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields.
Strong static charges or the magnetic fields produced by equipment such as
radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage the stored data, or
affect the product’s internal circuitry and cause camera misoperation.
• The liquid crystal panel used for the display is manufactured using extremely
high precision technology. Although the level of functioning pixels is 99.99% or
better, you should be aware that 0.01% or fewer of the pixels may not illuminate
or may illuminate when they should not. However, this has no effect on the
recorded image.
• If you point the camera toward an object that is bright, a band of light may
appear on the screen display. This phenomenon is referred to as “smear” and
is not a malfunction of the camera.
