Notes on the monitor, electronic viewfinder and lens
• The monitor and electronic viewfinder are manufactured using extremely high-
precision technology, and 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 monitor and electronic viewfinder. These dots are a normal result of
the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording.
• Do not hold the camera by the monitor.
• Take care that your fingers or other objects are not caught in the lens when it is
operating.
Notes on shooting with the viewfinder
This camera is equipped with an Organic Electro-Luminescence viewfinder with
high resolution and high contrast. This viewfinder achieves a wide viewing angle
and a long eye relief. The camera is designed to provide an easily viewable
viewfinder by appropriately balancing various elements.
• The image may be slightly distorted near the corners of the viewfinder. This is not
a malfunction. When you want to check every detail of the entire composition, you
can also use the monitor.
• If you pan the camera while looking into the viewfinder or move your eyes
around, the image in the viewfinder may be distorted or the color of the image may
change. This is a characteristic of the lens or display device and is not a
malfunction. When you shoot an image, we recommend that you look at the center
area of the viewfinder.
Notes on the flash
• Do not carry the camera by the flash unit, or use excessive strength on it.
• If water, dust or sand get into the open flash unit, it may cause a malfunction.
• Take care that your finger is not in the way when pushing the flash down.
• Do not use the Multi Interface Shoe with a commercially available flash that
applies voltage of 250 V or more or has the reverse polarity of the camera. It may
cause a malfunction.
