Be sure to replace the lens Cap when your camera is not in use. Keep your camera away from dust and
moisture. For cleaning the lens surface to remove dust or dirt, always wipe very lightly by using clean gauze or
lens cleaning cloth. Do not wipe the lens with a dirty handkerchief. When you are not using your camera for a
long period do not leave the shutter set.
When you focus the camera on a subject there is a certain distance in
front of and back of the subject within which other objects will also
appear sharp. This is known as the " Depth-of-Field," and it varies with
the lens aperture. The smaller the aperture, the greater the Depth-of-
Field.
If the camera is focused at 10 meters and the lens aperture is f / 16, the
Depth-of-Field {area in which all objects are sharp! is from about 5
meters to infinity.
