When you use a memory card with the camera for the first time, it is recommended that you format the card on the camera for more stable performance of the memory card.

1. Turn the power off. If the camera is turned on, the battery pack will not be charged.

2. Connect the USB Type-C® terminal of the camera to the USB Type-C terminal of a device compatible with USB PD (USB Power Delivery) using a commercially available USB Type-C cable (USB-C® – USB-C).

• The charge lamp will light up when charging starts. When the charge lamp turns off, charging is completed.

Use a USB-PD-compatible device with an output of 18 W (9 V/2 A) or more and a USB Type-C cable (USB-C – USB-C) that supports 3 A or more.

1. Mount the lens by aligning the two white index marks (mounting indexes) on the lens and camera.

2. While pushing the lens lightly toward the camera, turn the lens slowly in the direction of the arrow until it clicks into the locked position.

By attaching the XLR handle unit, up to four audio devices can be connected to the camera simultaneously.

1. Remove the shoe cap from the camera and the handle shoe cap from the XLR handle unit.

2. Slide the XLR handle unit into the Multi Interface Shoe until it reaches the back of the shoe. Then, be sure to securely tighten the screws on either side using a coin, etc.

By establishing a Bluetooth connection (pairing) between the camera and a smartphone, you can perform initial camera setup such as date and time settings from the smartphone.

• When an accessory is attached to the Multi Interface Shoe, changing the angle of the viewfinder may cause interference and result in scratches. When using the camera with an accessory attached to the Multi Interface Shoe, be sure to lower the viewfinder.

• Do not leave the lens or the viewfinder exposed to a strong light source such as sunlight. Because of the lens’s condensing function, doing so may cause smoke, fire, or a malfunction inside the camera body or the lens. If you have to leave the camera exposed to a light source such as sunlight, attach the lens cap to the lens.

• If sunlight or other strong light enters the camera through the lens, it may focus inside the camera and cause smoke or fire. Attach the lens cap when storing the camera. When shooting with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently far away from the angle of view. Even if it is slightly away from the angle of view, smoke or fire may still occur.

• Do not look at sunlight or a strong light source through the lens when it is detached. This may result in unrecoverable damage to the eyes or cause a malfunction.

• This camera (including accessories) has magnet(s) which may interfere with pacemakers, programmable shunt valves for hydrocephalus treatment, or other medical devices. Do not place this camera close to persons who use such medical devices. Consult your doctor before using this camera if you use any such medical device.

• Increase the volume gradually. Sudden loud noises can damage your ears. Be especially careful when listening to headphones.

• Do not leave this unit, the supplied accessories, or memory cards within the reach of infants. They may be accidentally swallowed. If this occurs, consult a doctor immediately.

• While the cooling fan is in operation, be careful not to let any objects get sucked into the fan.

• When shooting with the viewfinder, you may experience symptoms such as eyestrain, fatigue, motion sickness, or nausea. We recommend that you take a break at regular intervals when you are shooting with the viewfinder.

• If the monitor or electronic viewfinder is damaged, stop using the camera immediately. The damaged parts may harm your hands, face, etc.

• When shooting still images continuously, the monitor or viewfinder may flash between the shooting screen and a black screen. If you keep watching the screen in this situation, you may experience uncomfortable symptoms such as feeling of unwellness. If you experience uncomfortable symptoms, stop using the camera, and consult your doctor as necessary.

• When recording or streaming for long periods of time or recording 4K movies, if the same part of your skin touches the camera for a long period of time while using the camera, even if the camera does not feel hot to you, it may cause symptoms of a low-temperature burn such as redness or blistering. Pay special attention in the following situations and use a tripod, etc.:

– When using the camera in a high temperature environment

– When someone with poor circulation or impaired skin sensation uses the camera

– When using the camera with [Auto Power OFF Temp.] set to [High]

Do not touch the area around the ventilation outlet for long periods of time. Doing so may cause low-temperature burns.

If the overheating warning icon is displayed on the monitor, do not remove the memory card from the camera right away. Instead, wait for a while after turning off the camera, and then remove the memory card. If you touch the memory card while it is hot, you may drop it and the memory card may be damaged. Be careful when removing the memory card.

Using this unit with products from other manufacturers may affect its performance, leading to accidents or malfunction.
