Shooting procedure

This camera has 2 modes for monitoring subjects: the monitor mode using the monitor, and the viewfinder mode using the viewfinder.

Functions built into this camera

???This manual describes 1080 60i- compatible devices and 1080 50i- compatible devices.

To check whether your camera is a 1080 60i-compatible device or 1080 50i- compatible device, check for the following marks on the bottom of the camera.

1080 60i-compatible device: 60i

1080 50i-compatible device: 50i

???This camera is compatible with 1080 60p or 50p-format movies. Unlike standard recording modes up to now, which record in an interlacing method, this camera records using a progressive method. This increases the resolution, and provides a smoother, more realistic image.

Creating an image database file

If you insert a memory card that does not contain an image database file into the camera and turn on the power, the camera automatically creates an image database file using some of the memory card???s capacity.

The process may take a long time and you cannot operate the camera until the process is completed. If a database file error occurs, export all images to your computer using PlayMemories Home???, and then format the memory card using the camera.

Shooting with an E-mount lens compatible APS-C size

This camera is equipped with a 35 mm, full-frame CMOS sensor. However, the image size is automatically set to that of the APS-C size setting and the image size is smaller when an E-mount lens compatible APS-C size is used (default settings).

No compensation for damaged content or recording failure

Sony cannot compensate for failure to record or loss or damage of recorded content due to a malfunction of the camera or recording media, etc.

Back up recommendation

To avoid the data loss, always copy (back up) data to other media.

Notes on the monitor, electronic viewfinder, lens, and image sensor

???The monitor and electronic viewfinder are manufactured using extremely high- precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some small black dots and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the monitor and electronic viewfinder. These dots are normal due to the manufacturing process and do not affect the images in any way.

???Do not hold the camera by the monitor.

???When using the power zoom lens, be careful not to draw your fingers or any other objects caught in the lens.

???Do not expose the camera to sunlight or shoot sunward for a long time. The internal mechanism may be damaged. If sunlight is focused on a nearby object, it may cause a fire.

???Images may trail across on the screen in a cold location. This is not a malfunction. When turning on the camera in a cold location, the screen may become temporarily dark. When the camera warms up, the screen will function normally.

???The recorded image may be different from the image you monitored before recording.

Notes on shooting with the viewfinder

This camera is equipped with an Organic Electro-Luminescence viewfinder with high resolution and high contrast. This viewfinder achieves a wide viewing angle and a long eye relief. This camera is designed to provide an easily viewable viewfinder by appropriately balancing various elements.

???The image may be slightly distorted near the corners of the viewfinder. This is not a malfunction. When you want to see the full composition with all its details, you can also use the monitor.

???If you pan the camera while looking into the viewfinder or move your eyes around, the image in the viewfinder may be distorted or the color of the image may change. This is a characteristic of the lens or display device and is not a malfunction. When you shoot an image, we recommend that you look at the center area of the viewfinder.

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

The required length or frequency of the break may differ depending on the individuals, so you are advised to decide at your own discretion. In case you may feel uncomfortable, refrain from using the viewfinder until your condition recovers, and consult your doctor as necessary.

Notes on recording for long periods of time

???Depending on the camera and battery temperature, you may be unable to record movies or the power may turn off automatically to protect the camera.

A message will be displayed on the screen before the power turns off or you can no longer record movies. In this case, leave the power off and wait until the camera and battery temperature goes down. If you turn on the power without letting the camera and battery cool enough, the power may turn off again or you may be unable to record movies.

???Under high ambient temperatures, the temperature of the camera rises quickly.

???When the temperature of the camera rises, the image quality may deteriorate. It is recommended that you wait until the temperature of the camera drops before continuing to shoot.

???The surface of the camera may get warm. This is not a malfunction.

The table below shows the approximate total recording times using a memory card formatted with this camera. The recording time for XAVC S and AVCHD movies is when [Dual Video REC] set to [Off].

* Only for 1080 60i compatible models.

???Continuous shooting is possible for approximately 29 minutes (a product specification limit). The maximum continuous recording time of an MP4 (12M) format movie is about 20 minutes (limited by the 2 GB file size restriction).

Notes

???The recordable time of movies varies because the camera is equipped with VBR (Variable Bit-Rate), which automatically adjusts image quality depending on the shooting scene. When you record a fast-moving subject, the image is clearer but the recordable time is shorter because more memory is required for recording.

The recordable time also varies depending on the shooting conditions, the subject or the image quality/size settings.
