Condensation (When the lens or the monitor is fogged up)
Protect the camera against excessive vibration, force, or
pressure.
●
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions,
which may damage the lens, LCD monitor, or camera
body. This may also cause the camera to malfunction or
prevent recording.
• Dropping or hitting the camera against a hard surface
• Sitting down with the camera in your pants pocket or
forcing it into a full bag
• Attaching accessories to the wrist strap
• Exerting excessive force on the lens or monitor
The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or
waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust or
sand, or where it can come into contact with water.
●
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions,
which present a risk that sand, water, or foreign material
may enter the camera through the gaps around the lens
or buttons. Be especially careful because these conditions
may damage the camera, and such damage may not be
repairable.
• In extremely dusty or sandy places
• In the rain or by the shore, where the camera may be
exposed to water
●
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to
sudden changes of temperature or humidity. Avoid these
conditions, which may temporarily fog up, the lens or the
monitor, cause mold, or damage the camera.
●
If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait
about two hours before using it. Once the camera takes
on the surrounding temperature, the fogging will disappear
by itself.
