Notes on using the camera
On use and care
Avoid rough handling, disassembling, modifying, physical shock, or impact such as
hammering, dropping, or stepping on the product. Be particularly careful of the lens.
On database files
When you insert a memory card without a database file into the camera and 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. If a database file error
occurs, import all the images to a computer using PlayMemories Home, then format
the memory card.
Notes on recording/playback
• To ensure stable operation of the memory card, we recommend that you use this
camera to format any memory card being used with this camera for the first time.
Note that formatting will erase all data recorded on the memory card. This data
cannot be restored. Be sure to back up any important data to a computer or other
storage location.
• 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.
