“ALL-Intra” refers to a data compression method in which each frame is compressed. The file
size of motion pictures recorded in this method becomes larger, but this method can prevent the
loss of image quality because editing does not require re-encoding.
• When recording motion pictures in 4K, use a card rated as UHS Speed Class 3. (P11)
• The angle of view of motion pictures in 4K is narrower than those of motion pictures in other
sizes.
• To ensure highly accurate focus, 4K photos are recorded at reduced Auto Focus speeds. It may
be difficult to focus on the subject with Auto Focus, but this is not a malfunction.

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.
The camera cannot be operated even when it is turned on.
The camera turns off immediately after it is turned on.
• The battery is exhausted.
> Charge the battery. (P14)
The battery becomes flat too quickly.
• When [] ([4K Pre-Burst]) is selected, the battery drains faster.
> Select [] ([4K Pre-Burst]) only when recording.
The subject is not focused properly.
• The subject is beyond the focus range of the camera.
• Is [Focus/Release Priority] in the [Custom] menu set to [RELEASE]?
• Is [Shutter AF] in the [Custom] menu set to [OFF]?
• Is the AF Lock applied incorrectly?
The recorded picture is blurred.
The Image Stabiliser is not effective.
• The shutter speed will become slower and the Image Stabiliser function may not work properly
when taking pictures especially in dark places.
> We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer when taking pictures with a slow shutter
speed.
The subject appears distorted on the picture.
• If you record a moving subject when using the electronic shutter or recording motion picture or
a 4K photo, the subject may appear distorted on the picture. This is characteristic of MOS
sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. This is not a malfunction.
62
DVQX1043 (ENG)
Page 63
Others
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.
• Are you taking pictures with the electronic shutter?
> When using the electronic shutter, lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of the
horizontal stripes.
• If noticeable flicker or striping is seen under lighting such as a fluorescent or LED lighting fixture
when recording motion pictures, you can reduce the flicker or striping by setting up [Flkr
Decrease] and fixing the shutter speed. It is possible to select a shutter speed from [1/50],
[1/60], [1/100], or [1/120]. You can set the shutter speed manually in the Creative Video Mode.
(P20)
The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture 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 and colour. 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 colours and screen brightness may
change or horizontal striping may appear on the screen.
Recording motion pictures is not possible.
• If you continue to use the same card after changing [System Frequency] (P51), motion pictures
may not be recorded. To record with the same card, reset [System Frequency] to the original
setting. To record motion pictures with the current setting, try the following:
– Perform formatting (P16) on this unit after saving necessary data on a PC, etc.
– Insert a different card.
• You may not be able to record for a short while after turning this unit on when using a large
capacity card.
Sometimes it is difficult to focus with Auto Focus when recording 4K motion
pictures.
• This phenomenon occurs when the camera is trying to record with highly accurate focus at a
reduced Auto Focus speed, and is not a malfunction.
The flash is not activated.
• When the electronic shutter is used, the flash is not activated.
• When [Silent Mode] is set to [ON], the flash is not activated.
(ENG) DVQX1043

Others
The picture is not played back.
There are no recorded pictures.
• Is the card inserted?
• Is this a folder or picture which was processed in the PC?
If it is, it cannot be played back by this unit.
> It is recommended to use the software "PHOTOfunSTUDIO" (P57) to write pictures from
PC to card.
• Has [Playback Mode] been set for playback?
> Change to [Normal Play].
Cannot play back motion pictures.
• Motion pictures recorded with a different [System Frequency] setting cannot be played back. (P51)
> Return the [System Frequency] setting to the one you used during the recording.
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.
• Is any device, such as microwave oven, cordless phone, etc., that uses 2.4 GHz frequency operated
nearby?
>
Radio waves may get interrupted when used simultaneously. Use them sufficiently away from the
device.
• When the battery indicator is flashing red, the connection with other equipment may not start or the
connection may be disrupted.
(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.
∫ About a wireless access point
• Check if the wireless access point to connect is in operating state.
• Check the radio wave condition of the wireless access point.
>
Move this unit closer to the wireless access point.
>
Change the location and orientation of the wireless access point.
• It may not display even if the radio waves exist depending on the setting of the wireless access point.
>
Check the settings of the wireless access point.
>
When the network SSID of the wireless access point is set not to broadcast, the wireless access point
may not be detected. Enter the network SSID to start the connection or enable the SSID broadcast of
the wireless access point.
When I try to set up a Wi-Fi connection with a Windows 8 PC, my user name and
password are not recognised, so I cannot connect to the PC.
• Some OS versions, including Windows 8, use two types of accounts: a local account and a
Microsoft account.
> Be sure to use the user name and password for the local account.
If you haven’t set up a local account, please create one.
DVQX1043 (ENG)

The PC is not recognised when I use a Wi-Fi connection. The camera cannot be
connected to PC via Wi-Fi connection.
• The default workgroup name is set to “WORKGROUP”. If you changed the workgroup name,
the PC will not be recognised.
In [Change Workgroup Name] in [PC Connection] of the [Wi-Fi Setup] menu, change the
workgroup name to that of the PC you are connecting to.
• Please confirm login name and password are correctly typed.
• When the system time of Mac computer or Windows PC connected to a camera differs severely
from that of the camera, the camera cannot be connected to the computer or PC in some OSs.
> Please confirm [Clock Set] and [World Time] of the camera matches with time, date and
time zone in Windows PC or Mac computer. When both settings do not match severely,
please match 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 lens unit.
• It is a sound of lens movement or aperture operation when this unit is turned on or off, and it is
not a malfunction.
• The sound, which is caused by the automatic adjustment of the aperture, is heard when the
brightness has changed due to, for example, zooming or the movement of the camera. This is
not a malfunction.
Zooming stops instantaneously.
• When using the Extra Optical Zoom, the zooming action will stop temporarily. This is not a
malfunction.
The camera becomes warm.
• The surface of the camera and the reverse side of the monitor may become warm during use.
This does not affect the performance or quality of the camera.
The clock is reset.
• If you do not use the camera for a long time, the clock may be reset.
> [Please set the clock] message will be displayed; please reset the clock. (P16)
