Functions built into this camera

This manual describes each of the functions of TransferJet-compatible/incompatible devices.

To check if your camera supports the TransferJet function, check for the following mark on the bottom of the camera.

TransferJet-compatible device: (TransferJet)

On database files

When you insert a memory card without a database file into the camera and turn on the power, part of the memory card capacity is used to automatically create a database file. It may take some time until you can perform the next operation.

Notes on recording/playback

- To ensure stable operations of the memory card, we recommend that you use this camera to format any memory card being used with this camera for the first time. Note that formatting will erase all data recorded on the memory card. This data cannot be restored. Be sure to backup any important data to a PC or other storage location.

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

- The camera is neither dust-proof, nor splash-proof, nor water-proof. Read “Precautions” (page 27) before operating the camera.

- Avoid exposing the camera to water. If water enters inside the camera, a malfunction may occur. In some cases, the camera cannot be repaired.

- Do not aim the camera at the sun or other bright light. It may cause the malfunction of the camera.

- Do not use the camera near a location that generates strong radio waves or emits radiation. Otherwise, the camera may not properly record or play back images.

- Using the camera in sandy or dusty locations may cause malfunctions.

- 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.

- Clean the flash surface before use. The heat of flash emission may cause dirt on the flash surface to become discolored or to stick to the flash surface, resulting in insufficient light emission.

Notes on the LCD screen

• The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so 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 LCD screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording.
• If water droplets or other liquids splash on the LCD screen and make it wet, immediately wipe off the screen with a soft cloth. Leaving liquids on the LCD screen surface can harm the quality and cause a malfunction.
• Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction.

Please use Sony genuine accessories

If you use accessories manufactured by companies other than Sony, this could cause a camera trouble.

- Using other manufacturers' camera cases with magnets could cause a power supply trouble.

On camera's temperature

Your camera and battery may get warm due to continuous use, but it is not a malfunction.

On the overheat protection

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 LCD screen before the power turns off or you can no longer record movies.

On image data compatibility

• The camera conforms with DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) universal standard established by JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association).
• Sony does not guarantee that the camera will play back images recorded or edited with other equipment, or that other equipment will play back images recorded with the camera.

Warning on copyright

Television programs, films, videotapes, and other materials may be copyrighted. Unauthorized recording of such materials may be contrary to the provisions of the copyright laws.
