Charging the battery
■About batteries that you can use with this unit
It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the
genuine products are made available to purchase in some markets. Some of
these battery packs are not adequately protected with internal protection to
meet the requirements of appropriate safety standards. There is a possibility
that these battery packs may lead to fire or explosion. Please be advised that
we are not liable for any accident or failure occurring as a result of use of a
counterfeit battery pack. To ensure that safe products are used we recommend
that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.
• Use the dedicated charger and battery.
• The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which can be used
safely. The dedicated battery supports this function. The only batteries
suitable for use with this unit are genuine Panasonic products and batteries
manufactured by other companies and certified by Panasonic. (Batteries which
do not support this function cannot be used). Panasonic cannot in any way
guarantee the quality, performance or safety of batteries which have been
manufactured by other companies and are not genuine Panasonic products.

●If desired scene type is not selected, we recommend manually selecting the appropriate
recording mode. (Scene mode: ( 40))→
●Backlight compensation
Backlight refers to the light that shines from behind the subject. When this occurs, the
subject appears darker, and so backlighting is automatically corrected by increasing the
brightness of the entire image.
●We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer with [i NIGHT SCENERY] and
[i NIGHT PORTRAIT].
●When jitter is small (e.g. using tripod) with [i NIGHT SCENERY], shutter speed can
reach a maximum of 8 seconds. Do not move the camera.
●The settings for the following functions are fixed:
• [AUTO REVIEW]: [2 SEC.] • [AUTO POWER OFF]: [5 MIN.]
• [WHITE BALANCE]: [AWB] • [STABILIZER]: [AUTO]

• We recommend using a tripod and [SELFTIMER].
●A greater degree of distortion may be generated by taking wider-angled pictures
of close objects, while using more telescopic zoom may result in more colouring
appearing around the outlines of objects.
●The camera may make a rattling noise and vibrate when the zoom lever is operated –
this is not a fault.

When Extra optical zoom is used, zooming momentarily stops partway, but this is not a malfunction.

●The effect of red-eye reduction varies depending on the subject and is affected by
factors such as distance to the subject, whether the subject is looking at the camera
during preliminary flash, and so on. In some cases, the effect of red-eye reduction may
be negligible.
