humidity, such as the following:

•When the camera is used underwater suddenly after being on a hot beach etc.

•When the camera is moved to a warm area from a cold area, such as at a ski resort or

at high altitude

•When the side door is opened in a high-humidity environment

(Important) About the Waterproof/

Dustproof and Anti-shock Performance of

the Camera

This does not guarantee no destruction, no malfunction, or waterproofing in all

conditions.

¢1 This means that the camera can be used underwater for specified time in specified

pressure in accordance with the handling method established by Panasonic.

¢2 “MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock” is the test method standard of the U.S. Defense

Department, which specifies performing drop tests from a height of 122 cm, at

26 orientations (8 corners, 12 ridges, 6 faces) using 5 sets of devices, and passing the

26 orientation drops within 5 devices. (If failure occurs during the test, a new set is used to

pass the drop orientation test within a total of 5 devices)

Panasonic’s test method is based on the above “MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock”.

However, the drop height was changed from 122 cm to 200 cm dropping onto 3 cm thick

plyboard. This drop test was passed.

(Disregarding appearance change such as loss of paint or distortion of the part where

drop impact is applied.)

Waterproof/Dustproof Performance

This camera’s waterproof/dustproof rating complies with the “IPX8” and

“IP6X” ratings. Provided the care and maintenance guidelines described in

this document are strictly followed, this camera can operate underwater, to a

depth not exceeding 12 m for a time not exceeding 60 minutes. (¢1)

Anti-shock Performance

This camera also complies with “MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock”. The

camera has cleared a drop test from a height of 2 m onto 3 cm thick plywood.

In most cases this camera should not sustain any damage if dropped from a

height not exceeding 2 m. (¢2)
