The number of still images and recordable time may vary depending on the shooting conditions and the memory card.

Still images [ Image Size]: [L: 24M] When [ Aspect Ratio] is set to [3:2]*

• When the [ Aspect Ratio] is set to other than [3:2], you can record more pictures than shown above. (Except when [ Quality] is set to [RAW].)

Movies The table below shows the approximate maximum recording times. These are the total times for all movie files. Continuous shooting is possible for approximately 29 minutes (a product specification limit). The maximum continuous recording time of an MP4 (12M) format movie is about 20 minutes (limited by the 2 GB file size restriction). (h (hour), m (minute)) Number of still images and recordable time of movies Capacity Quality 2 GB Standard 330 images Fine 200 images RAW & JPEG 54 images RAW 74 images Capacity Record Setting 2 GB 60i 24M(FX)/50i 24M(FX) 10 m 60i 17M(FH)/50i 17M(FH) 10 m 60p 28M(PS)/50p 28M(PS) 9 m 24p 24M(FX)/25p 24M(FX) 10 m 24p 17M(FH)/25p 17M(FH) 10 m 1440×1080 12M 20 m VGA 3M 1 h 10 mGB

• The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit-Rate), which automatically adjusts the image quality depending on the shooting scene. When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording. The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject or the image quality/size settings. Functions built into this camera

• This manual describes 1080 60i-compatible devices and 1080 50i-compatible devices. To check whether your camera is a 1080 60i-compatible device or 1080 50i- compatible device, check for the following marks on the bottom of the camera. 1080 60i-compatible device: 60i 1080 50i-compatible device: 50i

• This camera is compatible with 1080 60p or 50p-format movies. Unlike standard recording modes up to now, which record in an interlacing method, this camera records using a progressive method. This increases the resolution, and provides a smoother, more realistic image. 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. Notes on recording/playback

• Before you start recording, make a trial recording to make sure that the camera is working correctly.

• This camera is neither dust-proof, nor splash-proof, nor water-proof.

• Do not look at the sun or a strong light through a removed lens. This may cause irrecoverable damage to your eyes. Or it may cause a malfunction of the lens.

• If moisture condensation occurs, remove it before using the camera.

• Do not shake or strike the camera. It may cause a malfunction and you may not be able to record images. Furthermore, the recording media may become unusable or image data may be damaged. Do not use/store the camera in the following places

• In an extremely hot, cold or humid place In places such as in a car parked in the sun, the camera body may become deformed and this may cause a malfunction.

• Under direct sunlight or near a heater The camera body may become discolored or deformed, and this may cause a malfunction.

• In a location subject to shaking or vibration Notes on using the cameraGB

• Near a location that generates strong radio waves, emits radiation or is strongly magnetic In such locations, the camera may not properly record or play back images.

• In sandy or dusty places Be careful not to let sand or dust get into the camera. This may cause the camera to malfunction, and in some cases this malfunction cannot be repaired. On storing Be sure to attach the front lens cap when not using the camera. Notes on the screen, electronic viewfinder and lens

• The screen and electronic viewfinder are manufactured using extremely high- precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may appear on the screen and electronic viewfinder. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording.

• When the lens is operating, be careful not to let your finger be caught by the lens. About the magnet There is a magnet attached in the area around the flash. Do not put objects that are affected by magnetic fields, such as a floppy disk or a credit card to the screen or the camera body. On using the lenses and accessories It is recommended that you use Sony lenses/accessories designed to suit the characteristics of this camera. Using the products of other manufacturers may cause the camera not to operate to its capability, or result in accidents and malfunctions of the camera. Notes on shooting with 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. The required length or frequency of the break may differ depending on the individuals, so you are advised to decide at your own discretion. In case you may feel uncomfortable, refrain from using the viewfinder until your condition recovers, and consult your doctor as necessary. Notes on the flash

The values for equivalent 35 mm-format focal length and angle of view are based on digital cameras equipped with an APS-C sized image sensor.

Minimum focus is the shortest distance from the image sensor to the subject. Design and specifications are subject to change without notice. On focal length The picture angle of this camera is narrower than that of a 35 mm-format camera. You can find the approximate equivalent of the focal length of a 35 mm-format camera, and shoot with the same picture angle, by increasing the focal length of your lens by half. For example, by using a 50 mm lens, you can get the approximate equivalent of a 75 mm lens of a 35 mm-format camera. Lens E16 – 50 mm zoom lens
