∫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
j When carried out from a cool, air-conditioned car, 
etc.
j When cool wind from an air conditioner is directly 
blown onto the lens
j In 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.

carrying it.
Also, be careful not to apply strong force to the 3D 
Conversion Lens.
≥Be careful that no shock is applied to the 3D 
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.
j Areas with high temperature and/or humidity, or

(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 recordingAttach 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.

Short-sighted or far-sighted persons, those with 
differences in the sight of their right and left eyes, 
and those with astigmatism are advised to correct 
their vision by wearing glasses etc.
Stop viewing if you can clearly see a double image 
while viewing 3D video.
≥ There are differences in the way that different people 
experience 3D video images. Please correct your 
sight appropriately before viewing 3D video.
≥ You can change the 3D setting of your television or 
3D output setting of the video camera to 2D.VQT4A75_P_eng__lsp.book  6 ページ  ２０１１年１２月１４日　水曜日　午後５時１分
