RECYCLING LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES

Lithium-Ion batteries

are recyclable.

You can help preserve

our environment by

returning your used

rechargeable batteries

to the collection and recycling

location nearest you.

For more information regarding

recycling of rechargeable batteries,

call toll free 1-800-822-8837, or visit

http://www.call2recycle.org/

Caution: Do not handle damaged or

leaking Lithium-Ion batteries.

For supplied accessories

This device complies with Part 15 of

the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to

the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful

interference, and (2) this device must

accept any interference received,

including interference that may cause

undesired operation.

This equipment complies with FCC

radiation exposure limits set forth

for an uncontrolled environment and

meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)

Exposure Guidelines. This equipment

has very low levels of RF energy that

is deemed to comply without testing

of specific absorption rate(SAR).

The available scientific evidence does

not show that any health problems

are associated with using low power

wireless devices. There is no proof,

however, that these low power

wireless devices are absolutely safe.

Low power Wireless devices emit low

levels of radio frequency energy (RF)

in the microwave range while being

used. Whereas high levels of RF can

produce health effects (by heating

tissue), exposure of low-level RF that

does not produce heating effects

causes no known adverse health

effects. Many studies of low-level

RF exposures have not found any

biological effects. Some studies

have suggested that some biological

effects might occur, but such

findings have not been confirmed by

additional research. This equipment

has been tested and found to comply

with IC radiation exposure limits set

forth for an uncontrolled environment

and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio

frequency (RF) Exposure rules.

Notes on using your camera

Along with this section, also see

“Precautions” in the Help Guide

(page2).

Screen language

You can select the language

displayed on the screen using the

menu (page 77).

Notes on recording/playback

• Once you format the memory

card, all the data recorded on

the memory card will be deleted

and cannot be restored. Before

formatting, copy the data to a

computer or other device.

• Before you start recording, make

a trial recording to make sure that

the camera is working correctly.

Notes on handling the product

• This camera is designed to be dust

and moisture-resistant, but is not

waterproof or splash-proof.

• Do not leave the camera, the

supplied accessories, or memory

cards within the reach of infants.

They may be accidentally

swallowed. If this occurs, consult a

doctor immediately.

No compensation for damaged

content or recording failure

Sony can provide no guarantees

in the event of failure to record or

loss or damage of recorded images

or audio data due to a malfunction

of the camera or recording media,

etc. We recommend backing up

important data.

Notes on the monitor, electronic

viewfinder, lens, and image sensor

• 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, there may be some

small black dots and/or bright

dots (white, red, blue or green in

color) that constantly appear on the

monitor and electronic viewfinder.

These dots are normal due to the

manufacturing process and do not

affect the images in any way.

• Do not hold the camera by the

monitor.

• Do not leave the lens or the

viewfinder exposed to a strong

light source such as sunlight.

Because of the lens’s condensing

function, doing so may cause

smoke, fire, or a malfunction inside

the camera body or the lens. If you

have to leave the camera exposed

to a light source such as sunlight,

attach the lens cap to the lens.

• When you shoot with backlighting,

keep the sun sufficiently far away

from the angle of view. Otherwise,

the sunlight may enter the focus

inside the camera and cause smoke

or fire. Even if the sun is slightly

away from the angle of view, it may

still cause smoke or fire.

• Do not directly expose the lens to

beams such as laser beams. That

may damage the image sensor and

cause the camera to malfunction.

• Do not look at sunlight or a strong

light source through the lens when

it is detached. This may result in

unrecoverable damage to the eyes

or cause a malfunction.

• Do not use the camera in areas

where strong radio waves or

radiation are being emitted.

Recording and playback may not

function correctly.

• Images may trail across on the

screen in a cold location. This is not

a malfunction.

• The recorded image may be

different from the image you

monitored before recording.

Notes on using lenses and

accessories

It is recommended that you use Sony

lenses/accessories designed to suit

the characteristics of this camera.

Using this camera with products from

other manufacturers may affect its

performance, leading to accidents

or malfunction. Sony bears no

responsibility for such accidents or

malfunction.

Notes on the Multi Interface Shoe

• When attaching or detaching

accessories such as an external

flash to the Multi Interface Shoe,

first turn the power to OFF. When

attaching the accessory, confirm

that it is firmly fastened to the

camera.

• Do not use the Multi Interface Shoe

with a commercially available flash

that applies voltages of 250 V or

more or has the opposite polarity

of the camera. It may cause a

malfunction.

Notes on shooting with the

viewfinder

• The image may be slightly distorted

near the corners of the viewfinder.

This is not a malfunction. When you

want to see the full composition

with all its details, 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.

• When shooting with the viewfinder,

you may experience symptoms

such as eyestrain, fatigue,

travel sickness, or nausea. We

recommend that you take a break

at regular intervals when you are

shooting with the viewfinder.

In case you may feel

uncomfortable, refrain from using

the viewfinder until your condition

recovers, and consult your doctor

as necessary.

Notes on continuous shooting

During continuous shooting, the

monitor or viewfinder may flash

between the shooting screen and a

black screen. If you keep watching

the screen in this situation, you may

experience uncomfortable symptoms

such as feeling of unwellness. If

you experience uncomfortable

symptoms, stop using the camera,

and consult your doctor as necessary.

Notes on recording for long

periods of time or recording 4K

movies

• 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 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 enough,

the power may turn off again

or you may be unable to record

movies.

• 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.

• The surface of the camera may get

warm. This is not a malfunction.

• Especially during 4K movie

shooting, the recording time may

be shorter under low temperature

conditions. Warm up the battery

pack or replace it with a new

battery.
