(Settings) t (Main Settings) t [Language Setting].
Internal memory and memory card back up
Do not turn off the camera, remove the battery pack, or remove the memory

memory card may be damaged. Be sure to make a backup copy to protect your
data.

turn on the power, part of the memory card capacity is used to automatically
create a database file. It may take some time until you can perform the next
operation.

Notes on recording/playback
• When you use a memory card with this camera for the first time, it is
recommended to format the card using the camera for stable performance of
the memory card before shooting. Note that formatting permanently erases
all data on the memory card, and is unrecoverable. Save precious data on a
computer, etc.
• Before you start recording, make a trial recording to make sure that the
camera is working correctly.
• The camera is neither dust-proof, nor splash-proof, nor water-proof. Read
“Precautions” (page 25) before operating the camera.
• Avoid exposing the camera to water. If water enters inside the camera, a
malfunction may occur. In some cases, the camera cannot be repaired.
• Do not aim the camera at the sun or other bright light. It may cause the
malfunction of the camera.
• Do not use the camera near a location that generates strong radio waves or
emits radiation. Otherwise, the camera may not properly record or play back
images.
• Using the camera in sandy or dusty locations may cause malfunctions.
• If moisture condensation occurs, remove it before using the camera.
• Do not shake or strike the camera. It may cause a malfunction and you may
not be able to record images. Furthermore, the recording media may become
unusable or image data may be damaged.
• Clean the flash surface before use. The heat of flash emission may cause dirt
on the flash surface to become discolored or to stick to the flash surface,
resulting in insufficient light emission.
Notes on the LCD screen and lens
• The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology
so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However,
some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may appear on
the LCD screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process,
and do not affect the recording.
• When the battery level becomes low, the lens might stop moving. Insert a
charged battery pack and turn on the camera again.
On camera’s temperature
Your camera and battery may get warm due to continuous use, but it is not a
malfunction.
GB
GB

On the overheat protection
Depending on the camera and battery temperature, you may be unable to
record movies or the power may turn off automatically to protect the camera.
A message will be displayed on the LCD screen before the power turns off or
you can no longer record movies.
On image data compatibility
• The camera conforms with DCF (Design rule for Camera File system)
universal standard established by JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information
Technology Industries Association).
• Sony does not guarantee that the camera will play back images recorded or
edited with other equipment, or that other equipment will play back images
recorded with the camera.
