∫About the Handling of the 3D Conversion

Lens

≥Sand or dust will cause malfunctions in the 3D

Conversion Lens. Be careful not to allow sand or

dust to get inside the 3D Conversion Lens when

using at the beach or similar.

≥The 3D Conversion Lens is not waterproof. Wipe

with a dry cloth if any water gets on it.

Contact the retailer or the service center when it

does not operate properly.

≥Image may be affected when the surface of the

protective panel is contaminated by water, oil,

fingerprints, etc. Wipe the surface of the protective

panel gently with a dry soft cloth before and after the

recording.

≥Remove the 3D Conversion Lens from the video

camera and place it in the lens storage bag when

carrying.

∫About Condensation (When the 3D

Conversion Lens is Fogged Up)

≥Condensation occurs when there is a difference in the

temperature or humidity as in the following cases. Be

careful since it may cause contamination, mold, or

malfunction of the 3D Conversion Lens.

jWhen it is carried indoors from a cold outdoor

environment

jWhen carried out from a cool, air-conditioned car,

etc.

jWhen cool wind from an air conditioner is directly

blown onto the lens

jIn an area with high humidity

≥To prevent condensation, place in a plastic bag and

allow it to warm up to the ambient temperature. If any

condensation occurs, leave it as it is for

approximately 1 hour. Condensation will disappear on

its own once it is warmed up to the ambient

temperature.

Conversion Lens by dropping or striking the bag with

the 3D Conversion Lens stored within. It may cause a

malfunction or stop images from being recorded. It

may also damage the 3D Conversion Lens.

≥Do not carry the video camera with the 3D

Conversion Lens attached by holding onto the 3D

Conversion Lens only.

Do not use or store the 3D Conversion Lens in the

following places since it may cause a failure or

malfunction.

jIn direct sunlight or at the beach in summer, etc.

≥Do not disassemble or modify.

≥When the 3D Conversion Lens has not been used for

a long period of time, check to see if there is any

looseness in the attachment of the 3D Conversion

Lens and adjust the attachment position before use.

≥When not in use, put the lens caps on, place it inside

the lens storage bag, and store in a place with low

humidity.

≥Also read the owner’s manuals of the video camera.

Cautions for use

VQT4A75_P_eng__lsp.book 4 ページ２０１１年１２月１４日　水曜日　午後５時１分

(ENG)VQT4A75

Do not allow any insecticide or volatile substance to

get on the 3D Conversion Lens if they are used in

the surrounding area.

≥Failure to observe this may result in deformation or

the coating peeling off.

Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner,

alcohol, etc., for cleaning.

≥Solvents may cause discoloration or damage.

≥Do not touch or contaminate the surface of the

protective panel. Blow any dust off using a

commercially available blower brush and wipe gently

with a dry soft cloth if contaminated.

≥Do not use any kitchen detergent or chemical treated

wipes.

∫About 3D recording

Attach the 3D Conversion Lens securely. It must not

be used with an insecure attachment.

Be sure to perform the convergence adjustments

before use. Recording with a misaligned lens may

lead to eye fatigue or discomfort. The lens should

be aligned each time it is re-attached to the

camcorder body.

With the 3D Conversion Lens attached, do not

record a subject at less than the minimum focus

distance. Only record subjects that are beyond

1.2 m (3.9 feet).

≥The 3D effects may be more pronounced, and

therefore cause tiredness or discomfort.

≥The minimum focus distance is approx. 1.2 m

(3.9 feet).

When recording with the 3D Conversion Lens

attached, be careful not to shake the video camera.

≥Tiredness or discomfort may result if the shake is

pronounced, due to riding in a vehicle or walking etc.

≥When moving the video camera as you record, move

it slowly.

≥We recommend using a tripod.

When requesting a repair for the 3D Conversion

Lens, request a repair for the video camera as well,

as the cause of the problem may be in the video

camera.
