When you use a lens with power zoom and find the sound of the zooming ring
during recording distracting, it is recommended that you use the W/T (zoom) lever
of the camera or the zooming lever of the lens. When you move the W/T (zoom)
lever of the camera or the zooming lever of the lens, slide the lever lightly with
your finger so that you do not flip the lever.

the condition of the camera.

camera tends to rise, and you may feel that the camera is warm. However, this is

such cases, turn the camera off and wait until the camera is ready to shoot again.
