≥Before cleaning, detach the Battery or pull out
the AC Mains Lead from the AC mains socket.
≥Wipe the Movie Camera with a soft dry cloth. To
remove stubborn stains, wipe with a cloth that is
soaked in a detergent diluted with water and
afterward finish wiping with a dry cloth.
≥For storing or transporting the Movie Camera,
place it in a bag or case lined with soft pads so
as to prevent the coating on the camera body
from being worn.
After use, be sure to take the Cassette out and
detach the Battery from the Movie Camera or
pull out the AC Mains Lead from AC mains
socket.
≥If the Cassette is left in the Movie Camera, the
tape sags and deteriorates.
≥If the Battery is left on the Movie Camera for a
long time, the voltage drops excessively, and
the Battery will not function even after it is
recharged.
ª About AC Adaptor
≥If the temperature of the Battery is extremely
high or extremely low, the [CHARGE] Lamp
may continue flashing, and the Battery may not
be charged. After the temperature of the Battery
has decreased or increased sufficiently,
charging starts automatically. If the [CHARGE]
Lamp continues to flash even after the Battery
temperature has decreased or increased
sufficiently, the Battery or AC Adaptor may be
faulty. In this case, please contact a dealer.
≥If the Battery is warm, charging takes a longer
time than normal.
≥If you use the AC Adaptor near a radio, radio
reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC
Adaptor 1 metre or more away from radio.
≥When the AC Adaptor is in use, it may generate
whirring sounds. However, this is normal.
≥After use, be sure to pull out the AC Mains Lead
from the AC mains socket. (If they are left
connected, a minute amount of current is
consumed.)
≥Keep the electrodes of the AC Adaptor and
Battery always clean.
ª Condensation
If the Condensation Indication flashes after the
Movie Camera is turned on, condensation has
formed inside the Movie Camera. In this case, the
Movie Camera power is turned off automatically
after about 1 minute.
Follow the steps below:
1 Take out the Cassette.
≥None of the other functions operate.
Depending on the amount of condensation,
removing the Cassette may even become
difficult. If this happens, wait for 2 to 3 hours
before taking the Cassette out.
2 Open the Cassette Compartment Cover and
wait for 2 to 3 hours.
≥The number of hours to wait depends on the
amount of condensation and ambient
temperature.

Others
3 2 to 3 hours later, turn on the Movie Camera
power and check to see if the Condensation
Indication is displayed.
≥Even if the Condensation Indication is not
displayed, as a precaution, please wait for
another hour before using the Movie Camera.
Watch for Condensation even before the
Condensation Indication is displayed.
≥Because condensation takes place gradually,
the Condensation Indication may not be
displayed during the first 10 to 15 minutes of
condensation formation inside the Movie
Camera.
≥In extremely cold places, condensation may
freeze and form frost. In this case, the frost
melts first, thus forming condensation, and then
it takes another 2 to 3 hours to eliminate the
condensation.
When the Lens is Fogged:
Set the [OFF/ON/MODE] Switch to [OFF] and
leave the Movie Camera in this condition for
about 1 hour. When the lens temperature
becomes close to the ambient temperature, the
fog disappears naturally.
ª Video Head Clogging and Care
If the heads (the parts that make contact with
tape) are dirty, mosaic-pattern noise may appear
on the playback image, or the screen as a whole
becomes black. If the heads are extremely dirty,
recording performance deteriorates, and, in the
worst case, the Movie Camera cannot record at
all.
Causes of Dirty Heads
≥Large quantity of dust in the air
≥High-temperature and high-humidity
environment
≥Damaged tape
≥Long operating hours
Using Mini-DV Format Digital Video Head
Cleaner
1 Insert the Head Cleaner into the Movie
Camera in the same manner as a Video
Cassette.
2 Press the [1] Button, and approximately
20 seconds later, press the [∫] Button. (Do
not rewind the tape.)
3 Take out the Head Cleaner. Insert a Video
Cassette and start recording. Then, play the
tape back to check the recorded image.
4 If the image is not still clear, repeat
Steps 1 to 3. (Do not use the Head Cleaner
for 3 times or more consecutively.)
Notes:
≥Do not rewind every time you use the Head
Cleaner. Rewind only when the tape reaches
the end, and then use it again from the
beginning in the same manner as before.
≥If the heads become dirty soon after cleaning,
the tape may be damaged. In this case,
immediately stop using that Cassette.
≥Do not clean the heads excessively. (Excessive
cleaning may cause excessive wear of the
heads. If the heads are worn, images cannot be
played back even after the heads are cleaned.)
≥If the dirty heads cannot be cleaned with the
Head Cleaner, the Movie Camera needs to be
cleaned at a service centre. Please consult a
dealer.
≥Video Head Cleaners can be purchased from
service centres.
≥Head cleaning due to dirty heads is not
considered a malfunction of the product. It is not
covered by the warranty.
Periodical Check-up
To maintain the highest image quality, we
recommend replacement of worn parts, such as
heads, etc., after approximately 1000 hours of
use. (This, however, depends on operating
conditions, such as temperature, humidity, dust,
etc.)
ª Optimal Use of the Battery
Battery Characteristics
This Battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery.
Its ability to generate power is based upon the
chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This
reaction is susceptible to the surrounding
temperature and humidity, and, if the temperature
is too high or too low, the operating time of the
Battery becomes shorter. If the Battery is used in
an extremely cold environment, the Battery may
operate only for about 5 minutes. If the Battery
becomes extremely hot, a protective function may
operate, and the Battery may become unusable
for a while.
Be Sure to Detach the Battery after Use
Be sure to detach the Battery from the Movie
Camera. (If it is left attached to the Movie
Camera, a minute amount of current is consumed
even when the Movie Camera power is off.) If the
Battery is left attached to the Movie Camera for a
long time, over discharge takes place. The
Battery may become unusable after it is charged.
Disposing of an Unusable Battery
≥The Battery has a limited life.
≥Do not throw the Battery into fire because it may
cause an explosion.

Attaching a deformed Battery to the Movie
Camera or AC Adaptor may damage the Movie
Camera or AC Adaptor.
ª Cautions for Storage
Before storing the Movie Camera, take the
Cassette out and detach the Battery.
Store all the components in a dry place with a
relatively stable temperature.
(Recommended Temperature: 15 to 25oC,
Recommended Humidity: 40 to 60%)
Movie Camera
≥Wrap it with a soft cloth to prevent dust from
getting into the Camera.
≥Do not leave the Movie Camera in places that
expose it to high temperature.
Battery
≥Extremely high temperatures or low
temperatures will shorten the life of the Battery.
≥If the Battery is kept in smoky or dusty places,
the terminal may rust and cause malfunctions.
≥Do not allow the Battery terminals to come
in contact with metal objects (such as
necklaces, hairpins, etc.). This can result in
a short circuit or heat generation and, if you
touch the Battery in this condition, you may
be badly burned.
≥Store the Battery in a completely discharged
state. To store the Battery for a long period of
time, we recommend you charge it once every
year and store it again after you completely use
up the charged capacity.
Cassette
≥Before storing it, rewind the tape to the
beginning. If the Cassette is left for more than
6 months with the tape stopped midway, the
tape sags (although it depends on the storage
condition). Be sure to rewind to the beginning.
≥Store the Cassette in its case. Dust, direct
sunlight (ultraviolet rays), or humidity may
damage the tape. Dust contains hard mineral
particles, and dusty Cassettes damage the
heads of the Movie Camera and other
components. Develop a habit of returning the
Cassette back to its case.
≥Once every half year, wind the tape to the end
and then rewind it to the beginning. If the
Cassette is left for 1 year or longer without
winding or rewinding, temperature and humidity
changes may cause the Cassette to deform due
to swelling, shrinking, and so forth. The wound
tape may stick to itself.
≥Do not place a Cassette near highly magnetic
substances or equipment.
≥The surface of tape is covered with extremely
minute magnetic particles, upon which signals
are recorded. Magnetic necklaces, toys, etc.,
have magnetic force that is stronger than you
may normally expect, and they may erase the
contents of a recording or may cause noise in
images and sounds.
Card
≥When the Card is being read, do not remove the
Card, turn off the power, or subject it to vibration
or impact.
≥Do not leave the Card in places where there is
high temperature or direct sunlight, or where
electromagnetic waves or static electricity are
easily generated.
≥Do not bend or drop the Card. The Card or the
recorded content may be damaged.
≥After use, be sure to remove the Card from the
Movie Camera.
≥After usage, store the supplied SD Memory
Card in the enclosed bag.
≥Do not touch the terminals on the back of the
Card with your fingers. Do not allow dirt, dust or
water to enter it.
ª LCD Monitor/Viewfinder/Lens Hood
LCD Monitor
≥In a place with drastic temperature changes,
condensation may form on the LCD Monitor.
Wipe it with soft dry cloth.
≥If your Movie Camera is extremely cold when
you turn its power on, the image on the LCD
Monitor is slightly darker than usual at first.
However, as the internal temperature increases,
it goes back to the normal brightness.
Extremely high precision technology is
employed to produce the LCD Monitor
screen featuring a total of approximately
113,000 pixels. The result is more than
99.99% effective pixels with a mere 0.01% of
the pixels inactive or always lit. However,
this is not a malfunction and does not affect
the recorded picture.

Others
Viewfinder
≥Do not direct the Viewfinder or Lens to the sun.
Internal components may be seriously
damaged.
≥To clean the inside of the Viewfinder, keep
pressing 1 and hold the Eyecup 2 and pull it
out.

Lens Hood
≥Attach the MC Protector (VW-LMC37E;
optional) or the ND Filter (VW-LND37E;
optional) on the Lens Hood.
≥Do not attach anything other than the MC
Protector (VW-LMC37E; optional) or the ND
Filter (VW-LND37E; optional) on the Lens
Hood.
≥When you wish to attach the Tele Conversion
Lens (VW-LT3714ME; optional) or Wide
Conversion Lens (VW-LW3707M3E; optional),
first of all, turn the Lens Hood counterclockwise
and take it off. Then attach the conversion lens
by turning it clockwise. When you attach the
Lens Hood back, insert 1 into the slot 2 and
turn it clockwise.

≥If you push the [W/T] Lever toward [W] during
recording with the filter and conversion lens
attached together to the Movie Camera,
4 corners of the image may become dark
(vignetting). For details, please refer to the
operating instructions of your accessories.
≥Be sure to keep the Lens Hood attached to the
Movie Camera so as to shut out unnecessary
light.

Explanation of Terms
ª Digital Video System
In a digital video system, images and sounds are
converted into digital signals and recorded on a
tape. This complete digital recording is capable of
recording and playback with minimal image and
sound deterioration.
In addition, it automatically records data, such as
Time Code and Date/Time, as digital signals.
Compatibility with S-VHS or VHS Cassettes
Because this Movie Camera employs a digital
system for recording image and sound data, it is
not compatible with conventional S-VHS or VHS
video equipment that employs an analog
recording system.
The size and shape of the Cassette are also
different.
Compatibility with Output Signals
Because AV signal output from the AV signal
output socket is analog (the same as
conventional video systems), this Movie Camera
can be connected with S-VHS or VHS video or a
TV for playback.
ª Focus
Auto Focus Adjustment
The Auto Focus System automatically moves
forward and backward the focusing lens inside
the Movie Camera to bring the subject into focus
so that the subject can be seen clearly.
However, the Auto Focus System does not
function properly for the following subjects or
under the following recording conditions.
Please use the Manual Focus Mode instead.
1) Recording a subject whose one end is
located closer to the Movie Camera and
the other end farther away from it
≥Because Auto Focus makes adjustments at
the centre of an image, it may be impossible
to focus on a subject that is located in both
foreground and background.
2) Recording a subject behind dirty or dusty
glass
≥Because the focus is on the dirty glass, the
subject behind the glass will not be focused.
3) Recording a subject in dark surroundings
≥Because the light information that comes
through the lens decreases considerably,
the Movie Camera cannot focus correctly.
4) Recording a subject that is surrounded by
objects with glossy surfaces or by highly
reflective objects
≥Because the Movie Camera focuses on the
objects with glossy surfaces or on highly
reflective objects, the recording subject may
become blurry.
5) Recording a fast-moving subject
≥Because the focus lens-inside moves
mechanically, it cannot keep up with the
fast-moving subject.
6) Recording a subject with little contrast
≥Because the Movie Camera achieves focus
based upon the vertical lines of an image, a
subject with little contrast, such as a white
wall, may become blurry.
ª Time Code
Time Code signals are data that indicate time
measured in hours, minutes, seconds, and
frames (25 frames per second). If this data is
included in a recording, an address is assigned to
each image on the tape.
≥The Time Code is automatically recorded as a
part of the sub-code at each recording.
≥When a new (previously unrecorded) Cassette
is inserted, the Time Code automatically starts
from zero. If a recorded Cassette is inserted,
the Time Code picks up from the point where
the last scene was recorded. (In this case, when
the Cassette is inserted, the zero display
[0h00m00s00f] may appear, but the Time Code
starts from the previous value.)
≥The Time Code cannot be reset to zero.
≥Unless the Time Code is continuously recorded
from the beginning of a tape, accurate editing
may not be possible. To ensure that the Time
Code will be recorded with no breaks, we
recommend the use of the Camera Search
Function (
-35-) before recording a new scene.
(
-20-) or the Blank Search Function
-71-
Page 12
ª Memory Stop Function
The Memory Stop Function is useful for the
following operations.
Rewinding or fast-forwarding a tape to a
desired position
1 Set [DISPLAY SETUP] >> [C.DISPLAY] >>
[MEMORY].
2 Reset the Tape Counter to zero at the tape
position from which you want to play it
back later. (
-9-, -17-)
3 Start playback or recording.
4 After playback or recording has finished:
Rotate the [OFF/ON/MODE] Switch and set
the Movie Camera to VCR Mode.
≥The [VCR] Lamp lights up.
5 Rewind the tape.
≥The tape automatically stops approximately
at the position where the counter was set to
zero.
Stopping editing automatically during audio
dubbing
1 Set [DISPLAY SETUP] >> [C.DISPLAY] >>
[MEMORY].
2 Reset the Tape Counter to zero at the
position where you want to stop editing.
3 Play back the still picture where you want to
start audio dubbing.
4 Start audio dubbing. (-38-)
≥Audio dubbing automatically stops at the
position where the counter was set to zero.
