Recording
Problem Check points
The unit arbitrarily stops
recording.
Use an SD card that can be used for motion picture
recording. (l 13)
The recordable time may have shortened due to the
deterioration of the data writing speed or repeated
recording and deletion. Using the unit, format the SD
card, built-in memory or HDD. (l 35, 36)
If [AGS] is [ON], record in the normal horizontal position
or set [AGS] to [OFF]. (l 56)
If the unit is exposed to strong vibrations or shocks while
recording on HDD, recording may stop to protect the
HDD. If the unit is used in a place with loud sounds, the
recording may stop due to sound vibrations. Recording
data on an SD card is recommended in these places.
Auto focus function
does not work.
Switch to intelligent auto mode.
If you are trying to record a scene which is hard to bring
into focus in auto focus mode, use the manual focus
mode to adjust the focus. (l 26, 66)
Colour balance of
images is strange when
recording in a place
such as a gymnasium.
In a place with multiple light sources, such as a
gymnasium or a hall, set the white balance setting to
(Indoor mode 2). If you cannot record clearly with the
(Indoor mode 2), set it to (Manual adjustment mode).
(l 64)
Colour or brightness of
the image changes, or
you may see horizontal
bars in the image.
The LCD monitor flickers
indoors.
Colour or brightness of the image may change, or you
may see horizontal bars in the image when the object is
recorded under fluorescent light, mercury light or sodium
light, etc., but this is not a malfunction.
In motion picture recording mode, record in intelligent
auto mode or set the shutter speed to 1/100 in areas
where the power supply frequency is 50 Hz, or 1/125 in
areas of 60 Hz.
In still picture recording mode, this will not affect the
recorded image.
