Why does my Panasonic Camcorder image color or brightness change?
The color or brightness of the image from your Panasonic Camcorder may change, or you might see horizontal bars when recording under fluorescent, mercury, or sodium light. This is not a malfunction. To address this, record in Auto Shutter Mode or adjust the shutter speed to 1/50, 1/60, or 1/100.
How to fix Panasonic AG-AC30 Camcorder when SD card is not recognized in another device?
If the SD card from your Panasonic Camcorder is not recognized when inserted into another device, ensure that the device is compatible with the capacity or type of SD card (SDHC Memory Card/SDXC Memory Card) you are using. Consult the device's operating instructions for details.
Why can't I play back scenes/still pictures on my Panasonic Camcorder?
Any scenes or still pictures displayed with thumbnails that indicate they cannot be played back cannot be played back. In most cases, this is displayed for scenes recorded with another device or edited with editing software, or scenes with damaged data. Thumbnails of scenes recorded on other devices with different system frequencies are indicated with a specific symbol, and this unit cannot play back these scenes.
