Why are files not deleting on my Panasonic HX-WA3 Camcorder?
If you cannot delete files on your Panasonic Camcorder, release the protect setting. If the thumbnails are displayed as files that cannot be deleted, and the files are unnecessary, format the media to erase the data. Be aware that formatting will erase all data, so back up important data first.
Why is my Panasonic HX-WA3 Camcorder image squeezed horizontally?
If your Panasonic Camcorder images are squeezed horizontally when connected to a TV, make sure to select the correct channel on your TV that matches the input used for the connection, according to your TV's operating instructions. Also, adjust the [TV ASPECT] setting on the camcorder to match the TV's aspect ratio. If using an HDMI micro cable, adjust the [HDMI] setting on the camcorder. The picture may not appear depending on the unit's status and the cable connection, so verify these.
What to do if my Panasonic HX-WA3 SD card is not recognised?
If your Panasonic Camcorder does not recognize the SD card, it might be because the card was formatted on a PC. Use the camcorder to format the SD card.
What to do if my Panasonic Camcorder is turned off automatically?
Your Panasonic Camcorder might be turning off automatically because of the ECONOMY function, which activates after approximately 5 minutes of inactivity to save power. Simply press the power button to turn it back on. Alternatively, if you're using VIERA Link and the unit turns off when you turn off your TV, disable the [VIERA Link] setting in the camcorder's menu.
Why do the colour or brightness change on my Panasonic HX-WA3 Camcorder?
When recording under fluorescent, mercury, or sodium light with your Panasonic Camcorder, changes in color or brightness, or horizontal bars in the image may occur. This is not a malfunction. For HX-WA30 models, record in Intelligent Auto Mode or set the shutter speed to 1/60 in areas where the power supply frequency is 60 Hz, or 1/100 in areas of 50 Hz. Alternatively, just record in Intelligent Auto Mode.

If the high temperature warning icon is displayed on your Panasonic Camcorder and recording is not possible, it means that the battery or unit's internal temperature is too high. Allow the unit to cool down before attempting to record again.
Why is the colour balance strange on my Panasonic Camcorder?
If the color balance of images from your Panasonic Camcorder appears strange when recording in places like a gymnasium, it could be due to multiple light sources. Try setting the White Balance setting to (INDOOR 2). If the recording is still unclear, set it to (WHITE SET).
Why is my Panasonic HX-WA3 Camcorder unit arbitrarily stopping recording?
Your Panasonic Camcorder might be stopping recording because you're not using an SD card suitable for motion picture recording. Also, the recordable time may have decreased due to data writing speed issues or repeated recording and deletion. Try formatting the SD card or the built-in memory using the unit.
