Using the MC
Protector/PL Filter
The MC protector (DMW-LMCH72;
optional) is a transparent filter which affects
neither the colours nor the amount of light,
so it can always be used to protect the
camera's lens. Also, the PL filter
(DMW-LPL72; optional) reduces diffused
light reflection so you can take pictures with
increased contrast.
1 Detach the lens cap.
2 Attach the MC protector A or the
PL filter B.
