LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.
Take test shots
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is recording correctly.

Configuring Basic Settings the First Time You Turn On the Camera

The first time you turn on the camera, a screen appears for configuring the display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.
• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the Display Language (Language)” (page 90). Note that a version of this manual in the language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the Japanese market.
• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language selection.

Preparing a Memory Card

*
Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
• For information about memory card capacities, see page 125.

Supported Memory Cards

– microSD Memory Card – microSDHC Memory Card – microSDXC Memory Card
• The above are supported memory card types as of July 2017.
• This camera supports use of microSD memory cards of the following types and capacities: microSD memory cards up to 2GB; microSDHC memory cards greater than 2GB, up to 32GB; microSDXC memory cards greater than 32GB, up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type requirements, is not guaranteed.
Warning!
0 Memory cards are small and present a risk of accidentally being swallowed
by infants and young children. Keep memory cards out of the reach of infants and young children. If a memory card is ever swallowed accidentally, contact a physician immediately.

. Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, high­quality movies may not be able to be stored correctly. A slow memory card can take too much time to record data and result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. When this happens “ ” (Movie Stop) will be “ ”.
