Trial recording
Before you record one-time events, you may want to make a trial recording to make sure that the camera is working correctly.
Do not shake or strike the camera
In addition to malfunctions and inability to record images, this may render the Memory Stick Duo unusable or image data breakdown, damage or loss may occur.
Do not get the camera wet
When taking pictures outdoors in the rain or under similar conditions, be careful not to get the camera wet. Water entering the inside of the camera may cause malfunctions which in some cases may not be repairable. If moisture condensation occurs, see page 128 and follow the instructions on how to remove it before using the camera.
No compensation for contents of the recording
Contents of the recording cannot be compensated for if recording or playback is not possible due to a malfunction of your camera or recording media, etc.
LCD screen, LCD nder (only models with an LCD nder) and lens
The LCD screen and the LCD nder are manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen and the LCD nder. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the recording in any way. Be careful when placing the camera near a window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD screen, the nder or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause malfunctions. Do not press the LCD screen hardly. The screen may be uneven and that may cause a malfunction. Images may be trailed on the LCD screen in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.
Do not expose the camera to sand or dust
Using the camera in sandy or dusty locations may cause malfunction.

Back up recommendation

To avoid the potential risk of data loss, always copy (back up) data to a disk.
Notes on image data compatibility

Using the AC adaptor

Multi connector AC Adaptor To a wall outlet (wall socket)

Using your camera abroad

Power sources You can use your camera in any country or region with the AC Adaptor/power cord (mains lead) (supplied) within 100 V to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz. Use a commercially available AC plug adaptor [a], if necessary, depending on the design of the wall outlet (wall socket) [b].
AC-LM5/LM5A Getting started
Connect the AC Adaptor (supplied) to the multi connector of the camera.
When placing the camera, make sure the LCD screen is facing up. Connect the DC plug with the mark facing up.
Connect the AC Adaptor to an easily accessible wall outlet (wall socket) close by. If any trouble occurs while using the adaptor, immediately shut off the power by disconnecting the plug from the wall outlet (wall socket).
Connect the power cord (mains lead) to the AC Adaptor and then to a wall outlet (wall socket).
After using the AC Adaptor, disconnect it both from the multi connector of the camera and from a wall outlet (wall socket). The set is not disconnected from the AC power source (mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet (wall socket) even if the set itself has been turned off.

The Image Size setup appears.
For details on the image size, see page 26.
Select the desired image size with / on the control button.
The image size is set. When the setting is complete, press (Image Size) so that the Image Size setup disappears from the LCD screen.
The image size selected here is maintained even when the power is turned off.

Image size and quality

You can choose image size (number of pixels) and image quality (compression ratio) based on the kind of images you want to shoot. The image size is shown by the number of pixels (dots) (horizontal vertical), which compose an image. For example, a 5M (25921944) size image indicates that there are 2592 pixels horizontally and 1944 pixels vertically. The larger the number of pixels, the larger the image size. You can select from Fine (high quality) or Standard image quality. Each uses a different compression ratio. When you select Fine, the image quality improves as the image size increases, but the amount of recorded data also increases and the number of images that can be recorded on a Memory Stick Duo decreases. Refer to the table on the right and choose the image size and image quality appropriate to the kind of images you want to shoot.

Shooting close-ups Macro
Using Spot AF is recommended (page 57). To shoot at even closer distances than closeups (Macro) recording, use (Magnifying glass mode) (page 40).
The close-ups (Macro) recording mode is used when zooming up subjects such as owers or insects. Setting the zoom all the way to the W side lets you shoot subjects at distances as close as 8 cm (3 1/4 inches). However, the minimum focus distance varies according to the zoom position. Therefore, shooting with the zoom set all the way to the W side is recommended.
When the zoom is set all the way to the W side: Approx. 8 cm (3 1/4 inches) from the lens surface When the zoom is set all the way to the T side: Approx. 25 cm (9 7/8 inches) from the lens surface

Notes on using your camera
Types of Memory Stick that can be used (not supplied)
The IC recording medium used by this camera is a Memory Stick Duo. There are two types of Memory Stick.
If you do not intend to use the battery pack for a long time, use up the existing charge and remove it from your camera, then store it in a cool, dry place. This is to maintain the battery pack functions. For details on the usable battery pack, see page 115.
Memory Stick Duo: you can use a Memory Stick Duo with your camera.

Carl Zeiss lens

This camera is equipped with a Carl Zeiss lens which is capable of reproducing sharp images with excellent contrast. The lens for this camera has been produced under a quality assurance system certified by Carl Zeiss in accordance with the quality standards of Carl Zeiss in Germany.
Memory Stick: you cannot use a Memory Stick with your camera.
Notes on the LCD screen and lens
The LCD screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the LCD screen. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the recording in any way.
Other memory cards cannot be used.
For details on Memory Stick Duo, see page 113.
When using a Memory Stick Duo with Memory Stick compatible equipment
You can use the Memory Stick Duo by inserting it into the Memory Stick Duo Adaptor (not supplied).

Notes on the battery pack
Charge the battery pack (supplied) before using the camera for the first time. The battery pack can be charged even if it is not completely discharged. Also, even if the battery pack is not fully charged, you can use the partially charged capacity of the battery pack as is.
Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause malfunctions. Be careful when placing the camera near a window or outdoors. Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction. Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a cold location. This is not a malfunction. Be careful not to bump the movable lens, and be careful not to apply force to it.
