∫ Handling of the Camera
Do not subject the camera to strong vibration, impacts, or pressure.
These may cause a malfunction or damage.
– Do not drop or knock against hard surfaces.
– Do not push hard on the lens section or monitor.
If sand, dust, or liquid gets on the monitor, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
– If the monitor is closed when such liquids are present, malfunction may result.
– Touch operations may be incorrectly recognised.
Do not place a hand inside the camera mount.
This may cause a failure or damage because the sensor is a precision device.
If you shake the camera while turning the camera off, a sensor may operate or a
rattling sound may be heard. This is caused by the image stabiliser mechanism in
the body. It is not a malfunction.
∫ Splash Resistant
Splash Resistant is a term used to describe an extra level of protection this camera
offers against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust. Splash
Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is subjected
to direct contact with water.
In order to minimise the possibility of damage please be sure the following
precautions are taken:
– Splash Resistant works in conjunction with the lenses that were specifically designed to
support this feature.
– Securely close the doors, socket caps, contact points cover, flash, etc.
– When the lens or cap is removed or a door is open, do not allow sand, dust, and moisture to
enter inside.
– If liquid gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
∫ Condensation (When the Lens, the Viewfinder or Monitor is Fogged Up)
• Condensation occurs when there are temperature or humidity differences. Be careful because
condensation can lead to stains or mould on the lens, viewfinder, and monitor or cause a
failure.
• If condensation occurs, turn off the camera and leave it for approx. 2 hours. The fog will
disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient
temperature.

Troubleshooting
First, try out the following procedures.
If the problem is not resolved, it may be improved by selecting [Reset] on the
[Setup] menu.
• Please also refer to the “Operating Instructions for advanced features” (PDF format), which
describes more detailed information.
When I shake the camera, I hear a rattling sound.
• The sound is caused by the In-Body Image Stabiliser. This is not a malfunction.
When I shake the camera, I hear a rattling sound from the attached lens.
• Depending on the lens you attach, it may move inside and create a sound. This is not a
malfunction.
Recording stops before finishing.
Cannot record.
Cannot use some functions.
• In high ambient temperatures or if the camera is used for continuous recording, the
temperature of the camera will rise.
To protect the camera against a rise in temperature, after [] is displayed, recording will be
stopped, and the following functions will not be available for a time.
Wait until the camera cools down.
–[4K PHOTO]
– Post Focus
– Motion picture recording
– Power supply via the USB connection cable
The charging lamp blinks.
• Charging is being performed in a place with extremely high or low temperature.
– Reconnect the USB connection cable (supplied) and retry charging in a place where ambient
temperature is 10 °C to 30 °C (50 oF to 86 oF) (temperature conditions also apply to the
battery itself).
• Charging is not possible if the power supply capacity of the computer is low.
The camera does not operate even if it is turned on. The camera quickly turns off
after being turned on.
• The battery is drained. Charge the battery. (P14)
(ENG) DVQX1761
77
Page 78
Others
The battery becomes flat too quickly.
• When [4K Pre-Burst] or [Pre-Burst Recording] is set, the battery drains faster.
Set these settings only when recording.
• When connected to Wi-Fi, the battery drains quickly.
Turn the camera off frequently such as by using [Economy].
Multiple images are recorded at once.
• When drive mode is set to [] (Burst), pressing and holding the shutter button will take burst
pictures.
• When bracketing is set, then pressing the shutter button records multiple images while
automatically changing the settings.
The subject is not focused properly.
• Confirm the following details:
– Is the subject outside of the focus range?
– Is [Shutter AF] set to [OFF]?
– Is [Focus/Release Priority] set to [RELEASE]?
– Is AF Lock set where it is not appropriate?
• If there are fingerprints or dirt on the lens, the focus may be set to the lens and not the subject.
The recorded image is blurred.
The stabiliser is not effective.
• The shutter speed will become slower and the stabiliser function may not work properly when
recording in dark places.
In these cases, use a tripod and the self-timer when recording.
Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent lighting and
LED lighting fixture.
• This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s
pickup sensors.
This is not a malfunction.
• When using the electronic shutter, lowering the shutter speed may
reduce the effect of the horizontal stripes.
• If flicker or horizontal stripes are noticeable when recording motion
picture, this can be mitigated by fixing the shutter speed.
Either set [Flkr Decrease], or record in Creative Video Mode.
DVQX1761 (ENG)
78
Page 79
Others
The brightness or colouring of the recorded image is different from the actual
scene.
• When recording under fluorescent or LED lighting fixture, etc., increasing the shutter speed
may introduce slight changes to brightness or colouring.
These are a result of the characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.
• When recording subjects in extremely bright locations or recording under fluorescent lighting,
LED lighting fixture, mercury lamp, sodium lighting, etc., the colouring or screen brightness
may change or horizontal striping may appear on the screen.
The subject appears distorted on the image.
• When a moving subject is recorded while using the following functions, the subject may appear
distorted in the picture:
– [ESHTR]
– Motion picture recording
–[4K PHOTO]
This is a characteristic of the MOS sensor that is the image sensor of the camera, and is not a
malfunction.
Cannot record motion pictures.
• When using a large capacity card, you may not be able to record for a while after turning on the
camera.
Motion picture recording stops before finishing.
• Recording motion picture using the SD card requires an SD card of a supported speed class.
Use a compatible SD card.
Sometimes focus adjustment with AF mode is difficult while recording 4K
motion pictures.
• This may occur when taking a picture by reducing the AF speed in order to adjust the focus at
high precision. This is not a malfunction.
The flash does not fire.
• Open the flash if it is closed.
• The flash does not fire when [Œ] (forced flash off) is selected.
• The flash does not fire when using the following functions:
– Motion picture recording
–[4K PHOTO]

Use the camera at a sufficient distance from these devices.
• When the remaining battery level is low, it may not be possible to connect to or maintain
communication with other devices.
(A message such as [Communication error] is displayed.)
• If you place the camera on a metal table or shelf, the radio waves may be adversely affected. In
such cases, you may not be able to establish a connection.
Move the camera away from the metal surface.
Wireless access point
• Confirm that the connected wireless access point can be used.
• Confirm the radio wave conditions of the wireless access point.
– Move the camera closer to the wireless access point.
– Change the location and angle of the wireless access point.
• Depending on the wireless access point, the radio wave may not be displayed even though it is
present.
– Turn off and then on the wireless access point.
– If the wireless channel of the wireless access point cannot be set automatically, manually set
the channel supported by the camera.
– If the wireless access point SSID is set not to broadcast, it may not be detected.
