Fog-proof filter
Depending on the temperature and humidity, the
protecting filter may mist because of vapor or your breath.
To ensure that the viewfinder is always clear, replace the
protecting filter with a fog-proof filter (Part No. 1-547-
341-11, not supplied).
Fitting the fog-proof filter
Replace the protecting filter on the packing ring with the
fog-proof filter.
Be sure to correctly assemble the fog-proof filter, the
packing ring, and the eyecup so that the reassembled
eyepiece is waterproof.
When cleaning the fog-proof filter, wipe it very gently
with a soft cloth to avoid damaging the anti-fogging
coating.

The battery terminal of this unit (the connector for battery
packs and AC adaptors) is a consumable part.
The unit may not operate properly if the pins of the battery

they become corroded due to prolonged outdoor use.
If you notice bending, deformation, or surface corrosion,
contact your dealer or a Sony service representative as
soon as possible to have the battery terminal replaced.
Periodic inspections are recommended to keep the unit
working properly and to prolong its usable lifetime.
