    Tielman,

    A quick Google search finds the Operation Manual:

    https://pro.sony.com/bbsccms/assets/files/micro/xdcam/manuals/OperationManual_PDW-F330_350_V156.pdf

    Which directs you to the Maintenance Menu where you’ll find the hours meter.

    It is basically a mute point however in that Sony guarantees the laser for seven years.

    I beg to differ, under Maintenance Menu #1 the Hours of Laser Use is reported. This is a typical Sony function.
