My external battery is plugged in, but the external battery
symbol is red or doesn’t appear.
Your external battery is either drained or not working. Try
charging the battery and then connecting to the camera again.
If you have another battery or your AC acapter handy, test
those to make sure the problem is not with your 4-pin XLR port.
How do I remove the battery?
The D16 battery is not removable. We suggest using a single
long-length external 12V battery while shooting as a companion
to the D16’s internal 3-4 hour battery to ensure continual use.
WHILE RECORDING
My Home Screen Icons disappeared.
You may have accidentally clicked the DISP button. Click the
button again to cycle through your monitor views. You can also
turn the home icons on and off in the MENU. Navigate to the
DISPLAY MENU and select the ICONS LCD option.
My monitor is only showing me black and white images.
You may have changed the color mode. In the MENU, navigate
to the DISPLAY MENU, and change the COLOR MODE option.
If you have COLOR MODE assigned to a crank, rotate until
color is restored.

BEFORE SHOOTING
I want to remove the pistol grip. Does it come off?
Removing the pistol grip is easy. Use the tighening wheel at the
top of the pistol grip, right under the camera body, to loosen the
screw mount of the pistol grip. The grip will slide off, allowing
you to mount the camera to a tripod or other rigging system..
Why won’t my lens auto focus?
The D16’s default C-mount does not support auto focus for
lenses. All lenses must be focused by hand, whether they have
auto-focusing mechanisms or not. Please keep an eye out for
annoucements of when a focusing C-mount will be available.
