Before using the unit
Before using the unit, always check if the built-in battery is not consumed, and then
set the date/time.
The date of the internal clock of the unit resets to January 1, 2022 if the built-in battery is exhausted. This may result in the meta
data of the clip not being recorded correctly, and it may not display correctly in the thumbnail screen.
Connect the AC adaptor to the main unit or attach a battery when recharging the built-in battery.
The date/time set on the main unit is maintained for approximately 4 months when left in this state for approximately 24 hours.
(Recharged even when the power is on.)
For details about setting the time zone and date/time (
Î[TIME ZONE]: 25, [CLOCK SETTING]: 25).
Do not use the unit in oily-smoky or dusty places.

Take care so sand and/or dust do not get inside the camera when using it at the beach,
etc.
Sand and dust may damage the camera and memory card. (Be careful when inserting or removing the memory card)
AC adaptor, battery charger, and battery
It may take more time to charge or may not be able to charge when the temperature of the battery is extremely high or
extremely low.
When the charging lamp continues to flash in orange, check if there is any debris, foreign object, or dirt attached to the
terminal section of the battery or the battery charger, and reconnect it correctly. Always disconnect the power plug from the
power outlet before removing the debris, foreign object, or dirt attached to the terminal section.
The charging lamp will flash in orange when the temperature of the battery is extremely high or low.
Then, charging will start automatically after the battery reaches chargeable temperature.
If the charging lamp continues to flash in orange even when the battery is at its optimal temperature, the battery or battery
charger may be damaged. Consult the dealer.
Noise may be generated in radio when the unit is used close to a radio (especially when receiving AM). Keep a distance of
1 m (approx. 3.3 feet) or more when using.
Oscillating sound may generate inside the AC adaptor or the battery charger during the use, but this is not a malfunction.
Always disconnect the power plug from the power outlet after the use. (Power of approximately 0.1 W is consumed by the AC
power itself if kept connected)
Do not get the terminal section of the AC adaptor, the battery charger, or the battery dirty. Install the device close to the power
outlet so the disconnection device (power plug) can be easily reached.
Memory cards
The surface of this unit or the memory card may get slightly hot when used for a long period of time, but this is not a
malfunction.
The amount of memory included on the label of the memory card is the total amount of memory below.
Capacity to protect and manage copyright

background
Overview Before using the unit
11
Take care not to drop the main unit when carrying the camera.
Strong impact will damage the main unit, and it may not operate properly.
Hold the handle or grip when carrying the camera, and handle it carefully.
Do not apply insecticide or volatile material to the camera.
The main unit may deform or the paint may peel off when insecticide or volatile material is applied.
Do not allow the camera to remain in contact with a rubber or vinyl object for a long
period of time.
Disconnect the battery or disconnect the AC cable from the power outlet after the use.
Battery characteristics
The battery is a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It produces electrical energy via an internal chemical reaction. This chemical
reaction is effected by the ambient temperature and humidity. The usable time of the battery becomes shorter when the
temperature gets higher or lower. When used in an environment with extremely low temperature, it can only be used for
approximately 5 minutes.
When the battery is in an extremely hot environment, its protective function will operate and the unit cannot be used temporarily.
After using the unit, be sure to remove the battery.
Securely remove the battery from the camera.
(Minute current is consumed even if the camera is turned off when the battery is left attached)
The battery will become over discharge and may become unusable even if it is recharged when the battery is left attached for
long period of time.
Do not remove the battery when the power is turned on.
Turn off the power and remove the battery after the operation lamp goes completely out.
Take proper care of the battery terminal.
Do not allow dust or foreign objects on the battery terminal.
Confirm that the battery and its terminal section is not deformed when the battery is dropped by mistake.
Do not mount the deformed battery into a camera or mount to the battery charger. This may damage the camera or the battery
charger.
Cautions when throwing memory cards away or transferring them to others
Formatting memory cards or deleting data using the functions of the unit or a computer will merely change the file management
information: it will not completely erase the data on the cards.
It is recommended to completely erase the data in following method when discarding/conveying.
Physically destroy the memory card itself
Completely erase the data in the memory card using a commercially available data erasing software for PC, etc.
Users are responsible for managing the data stored in their memory card.
LCD monitor and viewfinder
Condensation sometimes forms on the LCD panel of the LCD monitor in locations subject to extreme temperature differences.
If this happens, wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
Do not touch the LCD monitor with your finger nails, or rub or press with strong force.
The LCD monitor will be slightly darker than normal immediately after the power is turned on when the camera is very cold. It
will return to its regular brightness when the internal temperature increases.
The LCD monitor and viewfinder are managed with high precision so that at least 99.99 % of the dots are effective pixels and
0.01 % or less are invalid pixels and always lit. This is not a malfunction and it has no effect whatsoever on the recorded
images.
The viewfinder for this camera uses an organic EL display. The image may burn into the screen if the same image or letters
are left displayed on the screen for a long time. There is no problem with the recorded images.
Switch the screen by turning off the screen or by using the eye sensor, etc.
It may become difficult to see or difficult to recognize the touch when a LCD protection sheet is affixed.

Overview Before using the unit

About Condensation (When the lens, the viewfinder or LCD Monitor is fogged up)
Condensation occurs when there is a change in temperature or humidity, such as when the unit is taken from outside or a cold
room to a warm room. Please be careful, as it may cause the lens, the viewfinder or LCD monitor to become soiled, moldy, or
damaged.
When taking the unit to a place which has a different temperature, if the unit is accustomed to the room temperature of the
destination for about 1 hour, condensation can be prevented. (When the difference in temperature is severe, place the unit in a
plastic bag or the like, remove air from the bag, and seal the bag.)
When condensation has occurred, remove the battery and/or the AC adaptor and leave the unit like that for about 1 hour. When
the unit becomes accustomed to the surrounding temperature, fogginess will disappear naturally.
Caution regarding laser beams
The MOS sensor may be damaged if the MOS sensor is subjected to light from a laser beam.
Take sufficient care to prevent laser beams from striking the lens when shooting in an environment where laser devices are
used.
Treatment of clips
Clips recorded with devices other than this unit are not supported by this unit.
Regarding system frequencies
You can change the system frequency (59.94 Hz/50.00 Hz) for this unit by using the menu. (
Î[FREQUENCY]: 120)
When AVCHD clips are recorded, it is not possible to use the same memory card with different system frequencies. When the
system frequency is changed, use a different memory card.
Note the following points.
If you prepare to record important images, always shoot some advance test footage to verify that both pictures and sound are
being recorded normally.
Panasonic will not assume liability when video or audio recording fails due to a malfunction of the unit or the memory card
during the use.
Set the calendar (datetime of the internal clock) and the time zone, or check the setting before recording. This will have an
effect on the management of the recorded contents.
Exemption of liability
Panasonic is not liable in any way regarding following.
1 Incidental, special, or consequential damages caused directly or indirectly by the unit
2 Damages, breakage of the unit, etc., caused by misuse or carelessness of the customer
3 When disassembly, repair, or modification (including the software) of the unit is performed by the customer
4 Inconveniences, damnification, or damages by not being able to record and/or display the video due to any reasons
including failure or malfunction of the unit and recording media
5 Inconveniences, damnification, or damages resulting from malfunction of the system combining with any third party

Indicate the charge status as follows.
(B) DC IN 12 V connector < >
Connects to the DC plug of the AC adaptor.
It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the genuine product 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 would recommend that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.

Charging the battery
1
Connect the DC plug of the AC adaptor to the DC IN 12 V connector of battery
charger.
2
Connect the AC mains lead to the AC adaptor.
Perform step (2) first, and then step (3). Insert the AC mains lead all the way in until it stops.
3
Insert the battery into the battery charger.
Slide the battery horizontally into the battery charger along the “ ” mark.
The corresponding CHARGE indicator lights and charging starts.
The CHARGE indicator turns off when charging is complete. Slide the battery to remove it.
Do not use any other AC adaptors except the supplied one.
We recommend using Panasonic batteries (
ÎPower supply: 31).
If you use other batteries, we cannot guarantee the quality of this product.
Do not heat or expose to flame.
Do not leave the battery(ies) in a car exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time with doors and windows closed.
Do not expose to low air pressure at high altitudes.
Do not expose to extremely low air pressure, as this may result in explosions or leakage of flammable liquids and gases.
The battery charger will determine the status of the battery after the battery is mounted. Therefore, it may take some time
until the charging lamp is to illuminate. Mount the battery again if the charging lamp does not illuminate after ten seconds or
longer has elapsed.
When two quick charging compatible batteries are mounted, the quick charging on the <CHARGE1> side will take priority,
and the charging on the <CHARGE2> side will be normal charging. Once the charging of the <CHARGE1> side proceeds,
the charging on the <CHARGE2> side will switch to quick charging.
Also, depending on the charging status of the battery, the indicator on the battery that is mounted on the <CHARGE2> side
may turn off.
The battery charger will perform optimal charging after determining the status of the battery. Once the charging is started,
the indicator for quick charging compatible battery will flash. Also, if it is charging on both <CHARGE1> side and
<CHARGE2> side, charging of both batteries will stop when either one of the battery is mounted/removed, or replaced. It
will start the charging again after determining the status of the batteries.
Mount the battery to be charged prioritized on the <CHARGE1> side when charging.

Setting range of time code
The range of the time code that can be set differs depending on the frame rate of [REC FORMAT].
Time code function during battery replacement
The operation of the time code generator will continue by the backup mechanism functioning even when replacing the battery.
The time code of the free run may shift when any item in the [SYSTEM] menu
¨ [FREQUENCY], [FILE FORMAT], or [REC
FORMAT] is changed.
After turning on the power again with the power switch, check the time code and set again if necessary.
Time code in variable frame rate recording/super slow recording
The time code is fixed to [REC RUN] when the variable frame rate recording function or the super slow recording function is
enabled.
During recording, the time code progresses at a speed according to a ratio of the frame rate of the [REC FORMAT] and the

Cautions when switching the power supply from the battery to the AC adaptor while
an external lock is active
To maintain the continuity of the time code generator power, remove the battery only after the power status display in the
camera image screen has changed to [ ] after connecting the AC adaptor to the <DC IN 12V> terminal. The continuity of the
external lock of the time code is not guaranteed when the battery is removed first.
While recording or remote recording with the external device is in progress, the time code is not slave-locked to
(synchronized with) the external device’s time code, and instead advances in free run mode according to internal reference.
After recording or remote recording with the external device is stopped, the time code is slave-locked to the external
device’s time code, and as a result, some time code values may be repeated or skipped.
Since this camera does not have a genlock system, the time code may shift one frame.
Once the slave lock is performed, it will maintain the slave lock status even when the input from the <TC IN/OUT> terminal
is gone. However, the slave lock status will be cleared in following cases.
When the time code is set in [TC PRESET]
When the power is turned off
When switched [DF]/[NDF]
When set to [REC RUN]
When the variable frame rate recording function or super slow recording function is enabled
The pre-recording will be discarded once when the slave lock is performed during pre-recording.
The number of frames for the record start time code may not be a multiple of four when the frame rate of [REC FORMAT] is
set to 23.98p.
User bits cannot be locked by external devices.

[AF SENSITIVITY]
You can enhance the stability or tracking performance of auto focus.
Setting a larger value will enhance the tracking performance of focus, making it easier to move focus between subjects at
varying distances from this unit. We recommend that you set a larger value to keep focus on a fast-moving subject.
Setting a smaller value will provide more stability to focus, making it easier to keep focus on the targeted subject even when
an intervening object passes in front of the camera or the subject disappears from the view of this unit. We recommend that
you set a smaller value to avoid bringing an intervening object or the background into focus.

How to read a [REC FORMAT] setting
The item names for recording formats indicate the resolution, the frame rate, the codec mode, and the bit rate.
(However, bit rate is not included with some file formats.)
For example: When the recording format for file format [MOV] is [2160-59.94p/HEVC LongGOP 200M]
(A) Resolution
(B) Frame rate
(C) Codec mode
(D) Average bit rate
The resolutions that can be set with this unit are as follows:
2160: UHD (3840×2610), 1080: FHD (1920×1080), 720: HD (1280×720)
Smoother motion picture can be recorded with the higher value for the frame rate. [i] and [p] of the frame rate means interlace
and progressive respectively.
Interlace (interlacing scanning):
Video signal that divides the effective scanning lines to half and send them alternatively
Progressive (progressive scanning):
High density video signal sending the effective scanning lines simultaneously (It will be higher quality image than the
interlace.)
The image quality gets higher the larger the bit rate number. However, this is not the case when the codec mode is [ALL-I].
(This is because the compression method is different.)
When the codec mode is [ALL-I], recording is with ALL-Intra.
In this method, compression is performed at the individual frame level, so the file size increases, but it is possible to reduce
the degradation of image quality during the editing process.
Depending on the file format settings and bit rate of the recording format, the required Speed Class for the memory cards will
differ. Use the compatible memory cards. (

Cleaning and storing
Cleaning the main unit
Remove the battery or disconnect the AC cable from the power outlet before cleaning.
Do not use benzine or thinner to clean the unit. Using benzine or thinner may cause deformation or peeling off of the paint of
the main unit.
Wipe the main unit with a soft and clean cloth. For heavy dirt, wipe with a cloth soaked in kitchen detergent diluted with water,
and then with a dry cloth.
When using a chemical dust cloth, follow the instructions that came with the cloth.
Cautions for storage
Remove the battery from the main unit when storing. Store them in a place where humidity is low and temperature is relatively
constant.
When storing the unit, it is recommended that you place a desiccant (silica gel) in with it.
Recommended temperature: 15 °C to 25 °C (59 °F to 77 °F)
Recommended relative humidity: 40 % to 60 %
Main unit
Wrap in a soft cloth to prevent dust from getting inside.
Battery
The battery life shortens where the temperature is extremely high or low.
Storing in a place where there is heavy oil smoke or dust may lead to malfunctions due to rust on terminal connectors, etc.
Do not let the battery terminal contact a metal object (such as a necklace or hairpin). Short circuit may occur between
terminals and it may lead to heat generation. Touching on a heated part may cause severe burns.
Store the battery with electrically discharged. For long-term storage, it is recommended to charge the battery at least once a
year and use it up completely on the unit before storing it again.
Remove dust and other debris that gather on the contacts of the battery.
Memory card
Do not allow dirt, water, or other foreign objects to get into the contacts on the back of the card.
If you remove it from the unit, be sure to put it in its case.
Do not place SD cards in the following areas:
Where corrosive gases, etc., may be generated
In places exposed to direct sunlight, or places with high temperatures such as near heating devices
Where there is excessive moisture or dust
Locations susceptible to significant difference in temperature (condensation can occur.)
Where static electricity or electromagnetic waves occur
