Setting the region of use (setting 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.

When the region of use is not set, connect the camera’s power and set the <POWER> switch to < j > (ON).

The [AREA SELECT] screen for setting the region of use is displayed.

Use the jog dial button (or cursor buttons `/{) to select the region from the [NTSC]/[NTSC (J)] (Japan)/[PAL] and press the jog dial button (or <SET> button).

Select [YES] in the confirmation message, and press the jog dial button (or <SET> button).

The camera will be initialized according to the region of use selected and automatically restart.

After setting up the camera once, this screen will not be displayed when subsequently turning the power on. To change the region of use, configure the setting in [OPTION MENU] → [AREA SETTING] → [AREA SELECT].
