n About Condensation (When the lens

is fogged up)

• Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes as described below. Be careful of condensation since it causes lens stains, fungus and camera malfunction. –When the camera is taken from the cold

outdoors to the warm indoors

–When the camera is taken from outside

to inside an air-conditioned car

–When cool wind from an air conditioner

etc. blows directly on the camera

–In humid places

• To prevent condensation, put the camera in a plastic bag until the temperature of the camera is close to the ambient temperature. If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about 2 hours. The fog will disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient temperature.

n About SD Memory Card (optional),

SDHC Memory Card (optional) and MultiMediaCard (optional)

• The SD Memory Card, the SDHC Memory Card and the MultiMediaCard are small, lightweight, removable external memory cards.

• The SDHC Memory Card is a memory card standard decided by the SD Association in 2006 for high capacity memory cards more than 2 GB.

• The reading/writing speed of the SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card is fast. The SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card are equipped with a Write-Protect switch E that can inhibit writing and formatting. (When the switch is slid to the [LOCK] side, it is not possible to write or delete data on the card and format it. When the switch is unlocked, these functions become available.)

SD Memory Card

Preparation

• This unit (SDHC compliant equipment) supports both SD Memory Cards and SDHC Memory Cards. You can use SDHC Memory Cards on equipment that supports them. You cannot use SDHC Memory Cards on equipment that supports SD Memory Cards only. (When you use SDHC Memory Cards on other equipment, make sure to read the equipment’s operating instructions.)

• This unit does not support recording motion pictures on MultiMediaCards. We recommend using High Speed SD Memory Cards/SDHC Memory Cards when recording motion pictures (P75).

n About handling a card

Save important data in such places as your PC (P107) as well. Electromagnetic waves, static electricity, unit malfunctions, card damages and other factors may destroy or erase data.

• If the card was formatted on a PC or other equipment, format it again on the camera. (P106)

Please confirm the latest information on the following website.

http://panasonic.co.jp/pavc/global/cs

(This site is in English only.)

• Refer to page 128 for the number of recordable pictures and available recording time on a card.

• This unit supports SD Memory Cards formatted in the FAT12 and FAT16 systems that comply with SD Memory Card Specifications. It also supports SDHC Memory Cards formatted in the FAT32 system.

VQT0Y44

• The reading/writing speed of a MultiMediaCard is slower than an SD Memory Card. When a MultiMediaCard is used, the performance of certain features may be slightly slower than advertised.

• Keep the Memory Card out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

• We recommend checking that the clock is set properly before taking pictures. (P20)

• When you press the shutter button, the screen may become bright or dark for a moment. This function allows easy adjustment of focus and the recorded picture will not be affected.

• When the time for power save is set (P23), the camera is automatically turned off if you do not operate it within the set time. When operating the camera again, press the shutter button halfway or turn the camera off and on.

• To avoid picture noise, we recommend decreasing the ISO sensitivity, setting [NOISE REDUCTION] in [PICT.ADJ.] to [HIGH] or setting every item except [NOISE REDUCTION] to [LOW]. (P91) (ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] when the camera is shipped. Therefore, when taking pictures indoors etc. the ISO sensitivity increases.)

n Program shift

In Program AE mode, you can change the preset aperture value and the shutter speed under the same exposure. This is called Program shift. By this function, you can make the background more blurred (by decreasing the aperture value) or record the moving subject more dynamically (by setting to slow shutter speed) in Program AE mode.

• Press the shutter button halfway and perform the program shift with the joystick while the aperture value and the shutter speed are displayed (about 10 seconds).

• When the Program shift is activated, the Program shift indication screen.

n Tips for taking good pictures

• Hold the camera gently with both hands, keep arms stationary at your side and stand with your feet slightly apart.

• Be careful not to move the camera when you press the shutter button.

•

Do not cover the microphone or the AF assist lamp with your finger or other objects.

• Do not cover the photo flash with your finger or other objects.

• Do not touch the lens part.

• If the LCD monitor screen is difficult to see because of light from the sun etc. shining on it, we recommend using your hand or another object to block the light when using the camera.

n Direction detection function

• If you take pictures by holding the camera vertically, the information of the rotation on the pictures are automatically added and recorded to the pictures. When [ROTATE DISP.] (P97) is set to [ON], you can rotate and display pictures on the screen or the TV according to the information of the rotation on the pictures.

• This function may not work properly on pictures recorded by aiming the camera up or down.

• In motion picture mode [i] or [FLIP ANIM.], you cannot use the direction detection function.

n Focusing

• The focus range is 50 cm (1.64 feet) to Z (Wide), 1.0 m (3.28 feet) to Z (Tele). Use macro mode when recording close-up pictures. (P59)

•

If the distance between the camera and the subject is beyond the focus range of the camera, the picture may not be properly focused even if the focus indication lights.

• In the following cases, the camera cannot focus on subjects properly. –When including both near and distant

subjects in a scene.

–When there is dirt or dust on the glass

between the lens and the subject.

–When there are illuminated or glittering

objects around the subject. –When taking a picture in a dark place. –When the subject is moving fast. –When the scene has low contrast. –When jitter occurs. –When recording a very bright subject. We recommend taking pictures using prefocus (P58) and AF/AE lock (P61). In dark places, the AF assist lamp (P90) may turn on to focus on the subject.

• Even if the focus indication appears and the subject is focused, it is canceled when you release the shutter button. Press the shutter button halfway again.

n Preventing jitter (camera shake)

• Be careful of jittering when pressing the shutter button.

• The jitter alert shutter speed is slow and the chances of blurring are greater.

1 appears when the

Basic

• When the jitter alert appears, take special care with the shooting methods described on P28, or use a tripod for best results. By combining the use of a tripod with the self-timer (P47), you can avoid blurring caused when you press the shutter button.

• Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen. We recommend using a tripod. –Slow sync./Red-eye reduction [u]

n Exposure

• If you press the shutter button halfway when the exposure is not adequate, the indication of the aperture value and the shutter speed turns red. (However, the aperture value and the shutter speed do not turn red when the flash is activated.)

• The brightness of the screen may differ from the brightness of the recorded pictures especially when recording in low light conditions.

• When most of the subjects in the screen are bright (e.g. blue sky on a clear day, snowy field, etc.), the recorded pictures may become dark. In this case, compensate the exposure value on the camera. (P48)
