Introduction Before Use

Before Use
Firmware of Your Camera/Lens
Firmware updates may be provided in order to improve camera capabilities or to add
functionality.
Make sure that the firmware of the camera/lens you purchased is the latest version.
We recommend using the latest firmware version.
To check the firmware version of the camera/lens, attach the lens to the camera and
select [Firmware Version] in the [Setup] ([Others]) menu. You can also update the
firmware in [Firmware Version]. (Î[Firmware Version]: 608)
For the latest information on the firmware or to download/update the firmware,
visit the following support site:
https://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/download/index.html
(English only)
Handling of the Camera
When using the camera, take care not to drop it, bump it, or apply undue force.
These may cause malfunction or damage to the camera and lens.
If sand, dust, or liquid gets on the monitor, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
Touch operations may be incorrectly recognized.
When using in low temperatures (−10 oC to 0 oC (14 oF to 32 oF))
Before use, attach a Panasonic lens with a minimum recommended operating
temperature of −10 oC (14 oF).
Do not place a hand inside the camera mount.
This may cause a failure or damage because the sensor is a precision device.
If you shake the camera while turning the camera off, a sensor may operate or a
rattling sound may be heard. This is caused by the image stabilizer mechanism
in the body. It is not a malfunction.

Introduction Before Use

Splash Resistant
Splash Resistant is a term used to describe an extra level of protection this
camera offers against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust.
Splash Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is
subjected to direct contact with water.
In order to minimize the possibility of damage please be sure the following
precautions are taken:
Splash Resistant works in conjunction with the lenses that were specifically
designed to support this feature.
Securely close the doors, socket caps, etc.
When the lens or cap is removed or a door is open, do not allow sand, dust, and
moisture to enter inside.
If liquid gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
Condensation (When the Lens, the Viewfinder or Monitor
is Fogged Up)
Condensation occurs when there are temperature or humidity differences. Take care
as this may lead to soiling, mold, and malfunctions in the lens, viewfinder, and
monitor.
If condensation occurs, turn off the camera and leave it for approx. 2 hours. The fog
will disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the
ambient temperature.
Be Sure to Perform Trial Recording in Advance
Perform trial recording in advance of an important event (wedding, etc.) to check that
recording can be performed normally.
No Compensation Regarding Recording
Please note that compensation cannot be provided in the event that recording could
not be performed due to a problem with the camera or a card.

Attaching a Lens Hood
For recording against strong backlight, a lens hood can reduce the
inclusion of unwanted light in images and drop in contrast resulting from
the irregular reflection of light that occurs within the lens.
It allows you take more beautiful pictures by cutting out excess light.
When attaching the lens hood (flower shape) supplied with the
interchangeable lens (H-ES12060/H-FS12060)
Hold the lens hood by placing your fingers as shown in the figure.
Do not hold the lens hood in such a way that it will become bent.

If an operation such as a zoom or button operation is performed during video
recording, that operation sound may be recorded.
The lens operation sound (AF and image stabilizer) may be recorded to video.
If the operation sound of pressing the video rec. button or sub video rec. button to
end recording bothers you, try the following:
Record the video about 3 seconds longer, and then divide the last part of the
video using [Video Divide] in the [Playback] ([Edit Image]) menu.
Use the Shutter Remote Control (DMW-RS2: optional) for recording.
Depending on the type of card, the card access indication may appear for a while
after video recording. This is not a malfunction.
Even when playback is performed on a supported device, situations may occur
where image or sound quality is poor, recording information is not displayed
correctly, or playback is not possible, for example.
If you experience any of these, play them back on the camera.
Video recording is not possible while you are using the following functions:

Using the Image Stabilizer
When using a lens with an O.I.S. switch, set the switch on the lens to [ON].
When using a lens that does not have a communication function with this camera,
after turning on the camera, a message asking for confirmation of the lens
information is displayed.
Correctly operating the image stabilization function requires that the focal length be
set to match the attached lens.
Set the focal length in accordance as prompted by the message.
This can also be set using the menu. (Î[Lens Information]: 266)
When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the camera shake alert icon [ ]
may be displayed on the recording screen.
If this is displayed, we recommend using a tripod, the self timer or the Shutter

It corrects the colors so that white objects appear in white to make the
overall color closer to what is seen by the eye.
Normally, you can use auto ([AWB], [AWBc] or [AWBw]) to obtain the
optimal white balance.
Set this function when the coloring of the image is different from what you
expected, or you want to change the coloring to capture the ambience.

Notes on Flash Recording
Do not bring any object near the flash. Heat or light may cause the object to
deform or discolor.
If you record repeatedly, time may be needed to charge the flash.
While the flash is charging, images will be recorded without the flash firing.
When an external flash is attached, do not carry the camera by holding only the
external flash. It may become detached.
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.

Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent
or LED lighting.
This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors.
This is not a malfunction.
When using the electronic shutter (Î[Shutter Type]: 252), lowering the shutter
speed may reduce the effect of the horizontal stripes.
If flicker or horizontal stripes are noticeable when recording video, this can be
mitigated by fixing the shutter speed.
Either set [Flicker Decrease (Video)] (Î[Flicker Decrease (Video)]: 399), or fix the
shutter speed with the [ ] mode (ÎCreative Video Mode: 345).
