Camera handling
Keep the camera away from excessive vibration, force, or
pressure.
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions, which
●
may damage the lens, monitor, viewfinder, or camera body.
This may also cause the camera to malfunction or prevent
recording.
• Dropping or hitting the camera against a hard surface
• Sitting down with the camera in your pants pocket or forcing it
into a full bag
• Adding accessories to the camera strap
• Pushing with excessive force on the lens or monitor
The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or
waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust or
sand, or where water can come into contact with the camera.
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions, which
●
present a risk that sand, water, or foreign material may enter
the camera through the lens or openings around buttons. Be
especially careful because these conditions may damage the
camera, and such damage may not be repairable.
• In extremely dusty or sandy places
• In the rain or by the shore, where the camera may be exposed
to water
■
Condensation (When the lens, the monitor, or viewfinder, is fogged up)
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to sudden changes of
●
temperature or humidity. Avoid these conditions, which may make the lens, monitor,
or viewfinder, dirty, cause mold, or damage the camera.
If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait about two hours before
●
using it. Once the camera adjusts to the surrounding temperature, the fogging will
clear naturally.

About batteries that you can use with this unit
It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the
genuine products are made available to purchase in some markets. Some of
these battery packs are not adequately protected with internal protection to
meet the requirements of appropriate safety standards. There is a possibility
that these battery packs may lead to fire or explosion. Please be advised that
we are not liable for any accident or failure occurring as a result of use of a
counterfeit battery pack. To ensure that safe products are used we recommend
that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.

About motion picture/4K photo recording and speed class ratings
According to the [Rec Format] (→255) and [Rec Quality] (→255) of a motion picture,
the required card differs. To record 4K photos, you need a card with a speed class
rating that supports 4K photo recording. Use a card that meets the following ratings of
the SD Speed Class or UHS Speed Class.
• SD Speed Class and UHS Speed Class are the speed standards regarding
continuous writing. Confirm the SD speed by checking the card label or other card
related materials.

Motion pictures with their file size set to [FHD], [HD] or [VGA] in [MP4]:
●
Recording stops when the continuous recording time exceeds 29 minutes and 59 seconds or the

About Backlight Compensation
Backlight compensation is automatically activated in Intelligent Auto Plus Mode or
