Camera Care

•Cleaning camera body___________________________
Use a blower brush to remove dirt and dust from the camera body and clean it
with a soft, clean cloth. After using the camera near seawater, wipe the camera
body with a soft, clean cloth slightly moistened with pure water to remove salt,
and then dry it with a dry cloth. NEVER use organic solvents like thinner or
benzene. They may damage the camera.
•Cleaning mirror and lens__________________________
Use a blower brush to remove dirt and dust from the mirror or lens. To remove
fingerprints or smudges from the lens' surface, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or
lens tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens cleaner.
• Do not subject the camera or lens to strong vibration or shock____
Do not drop the camera body and lens or hit them against a hard surface as this
may damage their precision mechanism.
• Do not touch the shutter curtains_____________________
The shutter is made of very thin curtains. Do not hold, poke, or blow strongly with
a blower brush. Doing so may scratch, deform or tear the shutter curtains.
•Avoid strong electric or magnetic fields__________________
The camera may not function properly in strong electric or magnetic fields such
as near a transmitter tower. Avoid using the camera in such locations.
• Store the camera in a cool, dry place__________________
Store the camera in a cool, dry place to prevent mold and mildew.
Keep it away from naphthalene or camphor (moth repellent), electrical appliances
that generate magnetic fields or an excessively hot place such as inside a vehicle
during the summer or near a heater.
•Avoid extreme temperature change___________________
An extreme temperature change can cause condensation inside the camera body.
When taking the camera to a very hot place from a very cold place or vice versa,
place it inside an airtight container such as a plastic bag and leave it inside a
while to expose the camera gradually to the temperature change.
•Avoid water or moisture___________________________
Keep the camera away from water or moisture. When using the camera near
water, guard against splashes, especially salt water spray.
