Care of the camera

Do not subject to strong vibration, shock, or pressure.

• The lens, monitor, or external case may be damaged if used in the following conditions.

It may also malfunction or image may not be recorded if you:

– Drop or hit the camera.

– Press hard on the lens or the monitor.

∫Splash Proof

Splash Proof is a term used to describe an extra level of protection this camera offers

against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust. Splash Proof does not

guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is subjected to direct contact with

water.

In order to minimise the possibility of damage please be sure the following precautions are

taken:

– The Splash Proof feature works in conjunction with the lenses that were specifically designed

to support this feature.

– The camera is not designed to be Dust and Splash proof when the USB connection cable or

the cable holder is attached to it.

– Make sure that all doors, socket caps and terminal covers are securely closed.

– Make sure that you are in a dry and secure place when changing the battery, lens or memory

card. After changing, make sure their protective doors are securely closed.

– If this camera is exposed to water, sand or any other foreign material clean it as soon as

possible, taking the necessary precautions that the foreign substance does not get inside the

camera.

– Under no circumstances should you touch or place any foreign objects within the camera or

in close proximity of the camera’s image sensor.

When using the camera in cold environments with temperatures between s10 oC

and 0 oC (14 oF and 32 oF):

– Attach a Panasonic interchangeable lens with a minimum recommended operating

temperature of s10 oC (14 oF) before use.

If sand, dust, or liquids such as water droplets adhere to the monitor, wipe them off with a

dry soft cloth.

– Not doing so may cause the monitor to respond incorrectly to touch operations.

– If the monitor is closed when such liquids are present, malfunction may result.

∫About Condensation (When the lens, the viewfinder or monitor is fogged up)

• Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes. Be careful of

condensation since it causes lens, viewfinder and monitor stains, fungus and camera

malfunction.

• If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about 2 hours. The fog will

disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient

temperature.

If you shake the camera while it is turned off, its sensors may move or a rattling sound

may be heard. The sound is caused by the In-Body Image Stabiliser, and this is not a

malfunction.

Troubleshooting

First, try out the following procedures.

• Please also refer to the “Operating Instructions for advanced features (PDF format)”, which

describes more detailed information.

• The sound is caused by the In-Body Image Stabiliser. This is not a malfunction.

• The battery is exhausted.

>Charge the battery. (P11)

• When [6K/4K Pre-Burst] or [Pre-Burst Recording] is set, the battery drains faster.

>Use these functions only when recording with them.

• The subject is beyond the focus range of the camera.

• Is [Focus/Release Priority] in the [Custom] menu set to [RELEASE]?

• Is [Shutter AF] in the [Custom] menu set to [OFF]?

• Is the AF Lock applied incorrectly?

• The shutter speed will become slower and the Image Stabiliser function may not work properly

when taking pictures especially in dark places.

>We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer when taking pictures with a slow shutter

speed.

• If you record a moving subject when using the electronic shutter or recording motion picture or

a 6K/4K photo, the subject may appear distorted on the picture. This is characteristic of MOS

sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. This is not a malfunction.

If the problem is not resolved, it may be improved by selecting [Reset] on the

[Setup] menu.

When I shake the camera, I hear a rattling sound.

The camera cannot be operated even when it is turned on.

The camera turns off immediately after it is turned on.

The battery becomes flat too quickly.

The subject is not focused properly.

The recorded picture is blurred.

The Image Stabiliser is not effective.

The subject appears distorted on the picture.

• This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors.

This is not a malfunction.

• When using the electronic shutter, lowering the shutter speed may reduce the effect of the

horizontal stripes.

• If noticeable flicker or striping is seen under lighting such as a fluorescent or LED lighting fixture

when recording motion pictures, you can reduce the flicker or striping by setting up [Flkr

Decrease] and fixing the shutter speed. It is possible to select a shutter speed from [1/50],

[1/60], [1/100], or [1/120]. You can set the shutter speed manually in the Creative Video Mode.

(P22)

• When recording under fluorescent or LED lighting fixture, etc., increasing the shutter speed

may introduce slight changes to brightness and colour. These are a result of the characteristics

of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.

• When recording subjects in extremely bright locations or recording under fluorescent lighting,

LED lighting fixture, mercury lamp, sodium lighting, etc., the colours and screen brightness may

change or horizontal striping may appear on the screen.

• If you continue to use the same card after changing [System Frequency] (P82), motion pictures

may not be recorded. To record with the same card, reset [System Frequency] to the original

setting. To record motion pictures with the current setting, try the following:

– Perform formatting (P15) on this unit after saving necessary data on a PC, etc.

– Insert a different card.

• You may not be able to record for a short while after turning this unit on when using a large

capacity card.

• When the ambient temperature is high or motion picture is recorded continuously, the camera

may display [ ] and stop the recording to protect itself. Wait until the camera cools down.

• This phenomenon occurs when the camera is trying to record with highly accurate focus at a

reduced Auto Focus speed, and is not a malfunction.

• When the electronic shutter is used, the flash is not activated.

• When [Silent Mode] is set to [ON], the flash is not activated.

Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent lighting and

LED lighting fixture.

The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture is different from the actual

scene.

Recording motion pictures is not possible.

Motion picture recording stops in the middle.

Sometimes it is difficult to focus with Auto Focus when recording 4K motion

pictures.

The flash is not activated.

• When [Sleep Mode], [Sleep Mode(Wi-Fi)], or [Power Save LVF Shooting] (P81) is activated, the

external flash may not enter sleep mode automatically. When the camera is turned off, the

external flash may not turn off automatically.

>In such cases, turn off the external flash manually.

• Is the card inserted?

• Is this a folder or picture which was processed in the PC?

If it is, it cannot be played back by this unit.

>It is recommended to use the software “PHOTOfunSTUDIO” (P103) to write pictures from

PC to card.

• Has [Playback Mode] been set for playback?

>Change to [Normal Play].

• Motion pictures recorded with a different [System Frequency] setting cannot be played back. (P82)

>Return the [System Frequency] setting to the one you used during the recording.

∫General tips for using a Wi-Fi connection

• Use within the communication range of the device to be connected.

• Is any device, such as microwave oven, cordless phone, etc., that uses 2.4 GHz frequency

operated nearby?

>Radio waves may get interrupted when used simultaneously. Use them sufficiently away

from the device.

• When the battery indicator is flashing red, the connection with other equipment may not start or

the connection may be disrupted.

(A message such as [Communication error] is displayed.)

• If you place the camera on a metal table or shelf, the radio waves may be adversely affected. In

such cases, you may not be able to establish a connection. Move the camera away from the

metal surface.

∫About a wireless access point

• Check if the wireless access point to connect is in operating state.

• Check the radio wave condition of the wireless access point.

>Move this unit closer to the wireless access point.

>Change the location and orientation of the wireless access point.

• It may not display even if the radio waves exist depending on the setting of the wireless access point.

>Turn off and on the wireless access point.

>Check the settings of the wireless access point.

>When the network SSID of the wireless access point is set not to broadcast, the wireless

access point may not be detected. Enter the network SSID to start the connection or enable

the SSID broadcast of the wireless access point.

Even when the camera is put in sleep mode, the external flash does not enter

sleep mode.

Even when the camera is turned off, the external flash does not turn off.

The picture is not played back.

There are no recorded pictures.

A Wi-Fi connection cannot be established.

Radio waves get disconnected.

time zone in Windows PC or Mac computer. When both settings do not match severely,

please match them.

• Is the size of the image too large?

>Reduce the image size at [Size], and then send.

>Transmit after dividing the motion picture with [Video Divide].

• It may take longer time to transmit when distance to the wireless access point is far.

>Transmit closer to the wireless access point.

• File format of the motion picture that can be sent differs depending on the destination.

• It is a sound of lens movement or aperture operation when this unit is turned on or off, and it is

not a malfunction.

• The sound, which is caused by the automatic adjustment of the aperture, is heard when the

brightness has changed due to, for example, zooming or the movement of the camera. This is

not a malfunction.

• The surface of the camera and the reverse side of the monitor may become warm during use.

This does not affect the performance or quality of the camera.

• If you do not use the camera for a long time, the clock may be reset.

>[Please set the clock] message will be displayed; please reset the clock. (P14)

When I try to set up a Wi-Fi connection with a Windows 8 PC, my user name and
