■
Always take a test shot first
Before important events when you will use the camera (at weddings, for example),
always take a test shot to make sure that pictures and sound record correctly.
■
No compensation for missed shots
We cannot compensate for missed shots if technical problems with the camera or card
prevent recording.
■

About GPS
■
About the camera’s location name information
Before using the camera, read “User License Agreement for Location Name Data”. (→145)
■
When [GPS Setting] is [ON], the GPS function works even if the camera’s power
is off.
• Electromagnetic waves from the camera can affect instruments and meters. During
airplane takeoff and landing or in other restricted area, set [GPS Setting] to [OFF] or
, then turn the camera’s power off. (→76)
• When [GPS Setting] is [ON], power will drain from the battery even if the camera’s
power is OFF.
■
Recording location information
• The names of recording locations and landmarks (such as buildings) are current as of
December 2010. These will not be updated.
• Depending on the country or area, limited location name and landmark information
may be available.
■
Positioning
• Positioning will take time in environments where it is difficult to receive the signals
from the GPS satellites. (→75)
• Even if GPS reception is good, it will take approximately 2 to 3 minutes
to successfully execute positioning under the following conditions; when
positioning is executed for the first time, or when positioning is executed after
the camera is turned off with the [GPS Setting] set to
and then turned on
again or when [GPS Setting] is set to [OFF].
• Because the positions of the GPS satellites are constantly changing, depending on
the recording location and conditions, it may not be possible to position such satellites
accurately, or positioning discrepancy may occur.
■
When using in another country
• GPS may not work in China or in the border regions of countries neighboring China.
(Current as of December 2010)
• Some countries or regions may regulate the use of GPS or related technology.
Because this camera has a GPS function, before taking it into another country, check
with the embassy or your travel agency whether there are any restrictions on bringing
cameras with a GPS function.
