Depending on the motion picture recording environment, static electricity or
electromagnetic waves may cause the screen to go black momentarily or noise to be
recorded.
●
When recording motion pictures, it is recommended to use a sufficiently charged
battery or an AC adaptor (optional) and DC coupler (optional).
●
When recording motion pictures using an AC adaptor, if you unplug the AC adaptor or a
power outage occurs, power to the camera is cut, and the motion picture in progress is
no longer recorded.
●
If you attempt to play motion pictures recorded with the camera on other devices,
playback may not be possible, or the picture or sound quality may be poor.
Additionally, incorrect recording information may be indicated.
