When using an AC adaptor, ensure that the Panasonic DC coupler

used.

If the power supply is cut off due to a power cut or the AC adaptor being
disconnected, the motion picture being recorded using the AC adaptor
will not be recorded.

Some tripods or unipods, and some methods of holding the camera
may block the speaker, making it difficult to hear the beep, etc.
