Setting the region of use (setting the frame frequency, etc.)
When the camera is shipped, the region of use is not set. Before you use the camera for the first time, follow the steps below to change the setting to the frame frequency of the region of use.
Connect the charged battery or AC adaptor to the camera and turn <ON> the power switch without the region of use set.
The [AREA SELECT] screen for setting the region of use is displayed.
Move the control stick up or down to select the region of use from [NTSC]/[NTSC (J)] (Japan)/[PAL], and press the control stick.
Select [YES] in the confirmation message and press the control stick.
The camera will be initialized according to the region of use selected and automatically restarted.
After setting up the region of use once, this screen will not be displayed when subsequently turning the power on. To change the region of use, set it in [OPTION MENU] → [AREA SETTING].
