NOTE
[Underwater]/[Surface]:
- Use these recording programs when making recordings while the camcorder is in the optional WP-V4 Waterproof Case.
- When using the [Underwater] recording program, a red frame will appear on the edge of the screen.
- The [Underwater] recording program is for making recordings underwater*. When using underwater lighting equipment or making recordings while on land, we recommend using the [Surface] recording program
* Underwater is a unique environment that is ever-changing, depending on factors such as the weather and water conditions. In addition, water absorbs red light, which causes objects to appear bluer and greener.
- To switch the recording program between [Underwater] and [Surface] while the camcorder is in the waterproof case, turn on the camcorder while moving the zoom lever toward T or W. Keep pushing the zoom lever until the
or 
icon appears on the screen.
-
will appear on the screen when the camcorder’s temperature becomes too high. If this happens, turn off the camcorder, take it out of the waterproof case and keep it in a cool place until the temperature goes down. If the camcorder becomes too hot, it will turn off automatically. - When making recordings underwater with the [Underwater] recording program, the image on the LCD screen will appear redder than the actual subject. This will not affect the recording.
- When a commercially available wide-converter or other accessory is attached to the waterproof case, the camcorder may focus on the accessory. In such case, move the zoom lever toward T to focus on the subject.
