Take care that your finger is not in the way when pushing the viewfinder or flash down. (Only for models with a
movable viewfinder or a movable flash)
If water, dust or sand adheres to the viewfinder or flash unit, it may cause a malfunction. (Only for models with a
movable viewfinder or a movable flash)
Notes on the viewfinder (Only for models with a viewfinder)
When shooting with the viewfinder, you may experience symptoms such as eyestrain, fatigue, travel sickness, or
nausea. We recommend that you take a break at regular intervals when you are shooting with the viewfinder.
In case you may feel uncomfortable, refrain from using the viewfinder until your condition recovers, and consult your
doctor if necessary.
Although the viewfinder is built with high-precision technology for 99.99% or more effective pixels, black dots may
appear, and white, red, blue, and green dots may not disappear. This is not a malfunction. These dots are not
recorded.
Do not forcibly push down the viewfinder when the eyepiece is pulled out. It may cause a malfunction. (Only for
models with a movable viewfinder and an eyepiece that can be pulled out)
If you pan the camera while looking into the viewfinder or move your eyes around, the image in the viewfinder may be
distorted or the color of the image may change. This is a characteristic of the lens or display device and is not a
malfunction. When you shoot an image, we recommend that you look at the center area of the viewfinder.
The image may be slightly distorted near the corners of the viewfinder. This is not a malfunction. When you want to
see the full composition with all its details, you can also use the monitor.
If you use the camera in a cold location, the image may have a trailing appearance. This is not a malfunction.
When the temperature of the camera changes, the color tone of the viewfinder display may change due to the
characteristics of the display device.
Do not directly expose the viewfinder to beams such as laser beams. These may damage the inside of the viewfinder
and cause the camera to malfunction.
Notes on the monitor
Although the monitor is built with high-precision technology for 99.99% or more effective pixels, black dots may
appear, and white, red, blue, and green dots may not disappear. This is not a malfunction. These dots are not
recorded.
Do not press against the monitor. The monitor may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction.
If the monitor has drops of water or other liquids on it, wipe it with a soft cloth. If the monitor stays wet, the surface of
the monitor may change or deteriorate. This may cause a malfunction.
If you use the camera in a cold location, the image may have a trailing appearance. This is not a malfunction.
When you connect cables to the terminals on the camera, the rotating range of the monitor may become limited.
Notes on the image sensor
If you point the camera at an extremely strong light source while shooting images, highlighted areas in the images may
be recorded as black areas.
Notes on the wind screen (Only for models supplied with a wind screen)
If the wind screen is stored for a long time in a place exposed to direct sunlight or near a heating device, it may
become discolored. The texture and degree of raising of the hairs may change depending on the environment during
use and storage as well as aging.
Brushing or forcefully pulling the hairs on the wind screen may cause them to come off.
If the wind screen gets wet or dirty, do not remove it from the wind screen adaptor. Wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth
and dry it in the shade.
