> [Setup] > [Approved Regulations]

CAN ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B)

Contains IC: 772C-LB1JS955

This device contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause interference. (2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause

undesired operation of the device.

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. DC-G95 (HMN is 1JS1904) has been tested and found to comply with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the ISED radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.

Care of the camera

∫ 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 recognized.

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 stabilizer 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 minimize 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 mold 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.

Image Stabilizer

The camera can use both the in-body image stabilizer and the in-lens image stabilizer. Of the Dual I.S. modes that effectively combine two image stabilizers, this supports Dual I.S.2 ( , , ) with high correction efficiency. Furthermore, during motion picture recording, you can use the 5-Axis Hybrid Image Stabilizer that incorporates electronic stabilization.

• The image stabilizers to be activated differ depending on your lens. The icon for the currently activated image stabilizer is displayed on the recording screen.

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. (P17)

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 stabilizer is not effective.

• The shutter speed will become slower and the stabilizer 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.

(ENG) DVQX1749

Others

The brightness or coloring 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 coloring. 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 coloring 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] – Post Focus – [ESHTR] – [Silent Mode] – [Filter Settings] – [HDR]

The monitor/viewfinder turns off when the camera is turned on.

• If no operations are performed within the set time period, [Auto LVF/Monitor Off] is activated, and the monitor/viewfinder turns off.

• When an object or your hand is positioned near the eye sensor, the monitor display may switch to the viewfinder display.

Cannot play back. There are no recorded pictures.

• Folders and images processed on a PC cannot be played on the camera. We recommend using the software “PHOTOfunSTUDIO” to write images from the PC to the card.

• Set [Playback Mode] to [Normal Play].

A Wi-Fi connection cannot be established. Radio waves get disconnected. Wireless access point is not displayed.

General tips for using a Wi-Fi connection

• Use within the communication range of the device to be connected.

• Usage near devices that utilize the 2.4 GHz frequency such as microwave ovens and cordless telephones may result in the radio wave being lost. 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.

Enter the SSID, and then connect.

When trying to connect to a PC by Wi-Fi, this does not recognize the user name and password, and connection is not possible.

• Depending on the version of the OS, there are two types of user account (local account/ Microsoft account). Ensure you use the local account user name and password.

The PC is not recognized when I use a Wi-Fi connection. The camera cannot be connected to the PC using the Wi-Fi function.

• At the time of purchase, this camera is set to use a workgroup name of “WORKGROUP”. If you have changed the workgroup name of the PC, this will not be recognized. In the [Wi-Fi Setup] menu, [PC Connection], change the workgroup name of the PC to which to connect.

• Check that the login name and password are correctly typed.

• When the clock settings of the PC connected to the camera differs considerably from those of the camera, the camera cannot be connected to the PC depending on the OS. – Confirm that the [Clock Set]/[World Time] settings of the camera match the time, date, and

time zone settings of the Windows or Mac.

If there are considerable differences, correct them.

It takes time to transmit an image to the web service. Transmission of the image fails midway. Some images cannot be transmitted.

• Is the size of the image too large? – Reduce the image size at [Size], and then send. – Transmit after dividing the motion picture with [Video Divide].

• It may take longer time to transmit when distance to the wireless access point is far. Transmit closer to the wireless access point.

• File format of the motion picture that can be sent differs depending on the destination.

There is a sound from the lens unit.

• The lens movement and aperture operation emit sound when turning the camera on or off; this is not a malfunction.

• This is the sound of aperture operation when brightness changes; this is not a malfunction.

The camera becomes warm.

• During use, the camera may get warm, but this does not affect performance or quality.

The clock is wrong.

• When the camera is left for a long time, the clock may reset. Reset the clock. (P22)
