Attaching the Lens Cap/Shoulder Strap

∫ Lens Cap

•

When you turn the camera off or carry the camera, attach the lens cap to protect the surface of

the lens.

Pass the string through the hole on the

camera.

Pass the same string

through the hole on the

lens cap.

Attach the lens cap.

• Detach the lens cap before turning on the

camera in the Recording Mode.

• Do not hang or swing around this unit with

the lens cap string attached.

• Make sure to detach the lens cap when

turning the power [ON] or zooming.

• Be careful not to lose the lens cap.

• Since the lens cap string is long, be careful

not to let it get tangled with the shoulder

strap or let it hit the tripod during motion

picture recording.

- 14 -

Before Use

∫ Shoulder Strap

•

We recommend attaching the shoulder strap when using the camera to prevent it from

dropping.

Pass the shoulder strap through the hole at the

shoulder strap eyelet.

Pass the shoulder strap through the stopper

and fasten the shoulder strap.

A Pull the shoulder strap 2 cm (0.07 feet) or more.

• Attach the shoulder strap to the other side of the camera

being careful not to twist it.

• Check that the shoulder strap is firmly attached to the

camera.

• Attach the shoulder strap so that the “LUMIX” LOGO is on

the outside.

Before Use

- 15 -

Attaching the Lens Hood

In bright sunlight or backlight, the lens hood will minimize lens flare and ghosting. The lens

hood cuts off excess lighting and improves the picture quality.

•

Check that the camera is turned off.

•Close the flash.

1 Insert the lens hood into the lens with the short sides at the top and bottom.

2 Rotate the lens hood in the direction of the arrow until it stops with a "click".

3 Check that the marks A on the lens hood and the lens barrel are aligned.

•

Check that the lens hood is firmly attached and that it does not appear in the picture.

∫ Temporarily storing the lens hood

1 Turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow to detach it.

2 Reverse the lens hood and then insert the lens hood into the lens with the short

sides at the top and bottom.

•

Screw the lens hood into the lens barrel in the direction indicated by the arrow, ensuring

that the two parts mesh together properly.

3 Turn the lens hood in the direction of the arrow until it stops.

•

Attach the lens cap.

• When temporarily storing the lens hood, check that it is firmly attached.

Note

•

When taking pictures with flash with the lens hood attached, the lower portion of the photo may

turn dark (vignetting effect) and the control of the flash may be disabled because the photo

flash may be obscured by the lens hood. We recommend detaching the lens hood.

•When using the AF assist lamp in the dark, detach the lens hood.

•For details on how to attach the MC protector, ND filter and PL filter, refer to P204.

Preparation

Charging the Battery

∫ About batteries that you can use with this unit

•

Use the dedicated charger and battery.

•The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which can be used safely. The

dedicated battery supports this function. The only batteries suitable for use with this

unit are genuine Panasonic products and batteries manufactured by other companies

and certified by Panasonic. (Batteries which do not support this function cannot be

used). Panasonic cannot in any way guarantee the quality, performance or safety of

batteries which have been manufactured by other companies and are not genuine

Panasonic products.

∫ Charging

•

The battery is not charged when the camera is shipped. Charge the battery before use.

•Charge the battery with the charger indoors.

•It is recommended to charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 30 oC (50 oF to

86 oF). (The battery temperature should also be the same.)

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.

Attach the battery paying attention to

the direction of the battery.

Preparation

∫ About the [CHARGE] indicator

•

When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes

–The battery temperature is too high or too low. It is recommended to charge the battery again

in an ambient temperature of between 10 ºC to 30 ºC (50 oF to 86 oF).

–The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.

Connect the charger to the electrical

outlet.

• Disconnect the charger from the electrical socket

and detach the battery after charging is

completed.

• The AC cable does not fit entirely into the AC

input terminal. A gap will remain as shown on the

right.

Preparation

∫ Charging

•

The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely.

The charging time may vary depending on how the battery has been used. The charging

time for the battery in hot/cold environments or a battery that has not been used for long

time may be longer than normal.

Charging time and number of recordable pictures with the optional battery pack are the

same as above.

∫ Battery indication

The battery indication is displayed on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder.

[It does not appear when you use the camera with the AC adaptor (optional) connected.]

•

The indication turns red and blinks if the remaining battery power is exhausted. (The power

lamp also blinks) Recharge the battery or replace it with a fully charged battery.

Note

•

The battery may be warm after use, during charging, immediately after charging etc. The

camera also becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.

•The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not

recommended that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully

charged. (Since characteristic swelling may occur.)

•Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.

Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the

resulting heat generated.

Charging time Approx. 155 min

Preparation

∫ Recording still pictures (When using the LCD monitor/Viewfinder)

Recording conditions by CIPA standard

•

CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera & Imaging Products Association].

•Temperature: 23 oC (73.4 oF)/Humidity: 50%RH when LCD monitor is on.

•Using a Panasonic SD Memory Card (32 MB).

•Using the supplied battery.

•Starting recording 30 seconds after the camera is turned on. (When the Optical Image

Stabilizer Function is set to [AUTO].)

•Recording once every 30 seconds with full flash every second recording.

•Rotating the zoom lever from Tele to Wide or vice versa in every recording.

•Turning the camera off every 10 recordings and leaving it until the temperature of the battery

decreases.

The number of recordable pictures varies depending on the recording interval time.

If the recording interval time becomes longer, the number of recordable pictures

decreases. [For example, if you were to take one picture every two minutes, then the

number of pictures would be reduced to approximately one-quarter of the number

of pictures given above (based upon one picture taken every 30 seconds).]

∫ Recording motion pictures (When using the LCD monitor/Viewfinder)

•

These times are for an ambient temperature of 23 oC (73.4 oF) and a humidity of 50%RH.

Please be aware that these times are approximate.

•Actual recordable time is the time available for recording when repeating actions such as

switching the power supply [ON]/[OFF], starting/stopping recording, zoom operation etc.

¢ Motion picture recorded continuously in [MOTION JPEG] is up to 2 GB. Only the

maximum recordable time for 2 GB is displayed on the screen.

∫ Playback (When using the LCD monitor/Viewfinder)

Note

•

The operating times and number of recordable pictures will differ according to the

environment and the operating conditions.

For example, in the following cases, the operating times shorten and the number of recordable

pictures is reduced.

–In low-temperature environments, such as on ski slopes.

–When using [AUTO POWER LCD] or [POWER LCD] (P32).

–When operations such as flash and zoom are used repeatedly.

•When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging

the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.
