Regardless of the bracketing amount, exposure will not
exceed the limits of the exposure metering system.
W ISO BKT
Select a bracketing amount (±1, ±⁄, or ±⁄). Each

V WHITE BALANCE BKT
Select a bracketing amount (±1, ±2, or ±3). Each time
the shutter is released, the camera takes one shot
and processes it to create three copies: one at the

will be restricted to a minimum of ISO 800 (or to a mini-
mum of ISO 200 to 800 when an auto option is selected
for sensitivity); the sensitivity previously in e ect is re-
stored when bracketing ends.

If the shutter button is pressed all the way down be-
fore the panorama is complete, shooting will end and
no panorama may be recorded. Shooting may also be
interrupted if the camera is panned too quickly or too
slowly. Panning the camera in a direction other than that
shown cancels shooting.
Panoramas are created from multiple frames; if ON is
selected for D BUTTON/DIAL SETTING> SHUTTER
AE, exposure for the entire panorama is determined by
the  rst frame. The camera may in some cases record
an greater or lesser angle than selected or be unable to
stitch the frames together perfectly. The last part of the
panorama may not be recorded if shooting ends before
the panorama is complete.
The desired results may not be achieved with moving
subjects, subjects close to the camera, unvarying sub-
jects such as the sky or a  eld of grass, subjects that are
in constant motion, such as waves and waterfalls, or
subjects that undergo marked changes in brightness.
Panoramas may be blurred if the subject is poorly lit.

Outdoor Antenna Grounding: If an outside antenna
or cable system is connected to the video product,
be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded
so as to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of
the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70, pro-
vides information with respect to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size
of grounding conductors, location of antenna dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode.
EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
Power Lines: An outside antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines
or other electric light or power circuits, or where
it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care
should be taken to keep from touching such power
lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

For Your Safety
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-lo-
cated or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter, except tested built-in radi-
os. The County Code Selection feature is disabled
for products marketed in the US/ Canada.
Radiation Exposure Statement: The available sci-
entifi c evidence does not show that any health
problems are associated with using low power
wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that
these low power wireless devices are absolutely
safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels
of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave
range while being used. Whereas high levels of
RF can produce health eff ects (by heating tissue),
exposure of low-level RF that does not produce
heating eff ects causes no known adverse health
eff ects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures
have not found any biological eff ects. Some
studies have suggested that some biological
eff ects might occur, but such fi ndings have not
been confi rmed by additional research. X-E3 has
been tested and found to comply with IC radia-
tion exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio
frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
