When mounted on the camera, the Battery Grip (DMW-BGG1:
optional) improves ease of operation and grip when the camera is
held vertically.
Also, inserting a battery into the Battery Grip provides a stable
supply of power even for long periods of recording.
A Battery Grip (DMW-BGG1: optional) is supplied with a battery
pack (DMW-BLC12).

When the Battery Grip is attached to the camera, the Battery Grip
buttons operate as follows:
A [ ] (Exposure compensation) button/[Fn] button:

• If you attach an external flash, you can use the following functions even when recording with
the flash:
– Aperture Bracket
– Focus Bracket
• You can set the aperture value, the shutter speed and the ISO sensitivity on the camera even
when attaching the external flash.
• If you record at close range with a wide angle, light from the flash may be blocked by the lens,
darkening the lower part of the screen.
• When using a commercially available external flash, do not use one with reversed polarity or
function for communicating with a camera.
It may cause the camera to malfunction, or it may not operate correctly.
• When attaching the external flash, do not hold only the external flash because it may detach
from the camera.
• Read the operating instructions of the external flash for details.
