We use environmentally conscious packaging materials
Environmentally conscious packaging materials were used for the camera and supplied accessories. Due to the
characteristics of the packaging materials, note the following points.
Powder, etc. from the packaging materials may adhere to the camera or supplied accessories. In this case, remove it
with a commercially available blower or cleaning paper before use.
The packaging materials will deteriorate with continuous use. Be careful when carrying the product by the packaging.
On the data specifications described in this manual
The data on performance and specifications in this manual are based on an ordinary ambient temperature of 25ºC
(77°F), except where otherwise indicated.
For the battery pack, the data are based on a battery pack that was fully charged until the charge lamp turned off.
On operating temperatures
Shooting in extremely cold or hot environments that exceed the operating temperature range is not recommended.
Under high ambient temperatures, the temperature of the camera rises quickly.
When the temperature of the camera rises, the image quality may deteriorate. It is recommended that you wait until
the temperature of the camera drops before continuing to shoot.
Depending on the camera and battery temperature, the camera may become unable to record movies or the power
may turn off automatically to protect the camera. A message will be displayed on the screen before the power turns
off or you can no longer record movies. In this case, leave the power off and wait until the camera and battery
temperature goes down. If you turn on the power without letting the camera and battery cool sufficiently, the power
may turn off again, or you may still be unable to record movies.
Notes on recording for long periods of time or recording 4K movies
During use, the camera and battery may become warm. This is not a malfunction.
Especially during 4K shooting, the recording time may be shorter under low temperature conditions. Warm up the
battery pack or replace it with a new battery.
Notes on playing movies on other devices
XAVC HS and XAVC S movies can only be played back on compatible devices.
