About this manual
• Operations in the manual are described
using the E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS lens
supplied with the NEX-FS700UK/
FS700EK/FS700K. When the operation
differs depending on the lens used, you
will find the relevant information in
“Notes” or “Tips.”
• The value you can set in [ REC
FORMAT], etc., depends on the [60i/50i
SEL] setting. In this manual, the values
for both [60i] and [50i] settings are
described.
• Memory cards and a flash memory unit
are both referred to as recording media in
this manual.
• The images of the LCD screen used in this
manual for illustration purposes are
captured using a digital still camera, and
therefore may appear different.
• The on-screen displays in each local
language are used for illustrating the
operating procedures. Change the screen
language before using your camcorder if
necessary (p. 29).
• Design and specifications of recording
media and other accessories are subject to
change without notice.
