Before Use

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.

• Be careful not to lose the lens cap.

∫ Strap

•

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

Pass the strap through the hole at the strap

eyelet.

Pass the strap through the

stopper and fasten the strap.

A Pull the strap 2 cm or more.

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

careful not to twist it.

• Check that the strap is firmly attached to the camera.

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

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.

Securely attach the hood adaptor

so that it is all the way into the

lens barrel.

• Do not tighten the hood adaptor too much.

• When attaching the hood adaptor, take

extended care not to cross-thread.

When removing it, do not squeeze it as it

will not unscrew freely.

Before Use

Place the camera upside down, align

the mark on the lens hood with the

mark A on the camera and then insert

the lens hood.

• Check if the screw is loose and then attach the

lens hood.

Tighten the screw.

• Do not tighten the screw too much.

∫ Removing the hood adaptor

•

Grasp the base of the hood adaptor to remove it.

Note

•

You cannot attach the lens hood the opposite way.

•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 P122.

•You cannot attach the conversion lens when the hood adaptor is attached. (P120)

•If any accessories are lost, customers in the USA should contact Panasonic’s parts department

at 1 800 833-9626 and customers in Canada should contact 1 800 99-LUMIX

(1-800-995-8649) for further information about obtaining replacement parts.

Preparation

Charging the Battery

•Use the dedicated charger and battery.

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

•Charge the battery with the charger indoors.

•Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC (50 oF to 95 oF). (The battery

temperature should also be the same.)

∫ When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes

•

The battery temperature is excessively high or low. The charging time will be longer than

normal. Also, charging may not be completed.

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

Note

•

After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet.

•The battery becomes warm after using it and during and after charging. The camera also

becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.

•The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.

•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. (The battery has characteristics that will reduce its operating duration and cause the

battery to swell up.)

•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.

•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.

Attach the battery with

attention to the direction of the

battery.

Connect the charger to the

electrical outlet.

• Charging starts when the [CHARGE]

indicator A lights green.

Detach the battery after

charging is completed.

• Charging is complete when the

[CHARGE] indicator A turns off (after

approx. 120 min maximum).

About the Battery (charging/number of recordable pictures)

∫ 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 (DMW-AC7PP;

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.

∫ The battery life

Recording conditions by CIPA standard

•

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

•Temperature: 23 oC (73.4 F)/Humidity: 50% 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 decreases in Auto power LCD mode, Power LCD mode

and High angle mode (P25).

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

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