Annex G – Maintenance & Care
OPTICS
• Keep the optical area clean when changing lenses by keeping the body and lens
mount caps on when the lens is separated from the camera.
• If the lens or sensor/IR filter is dusty, remove the dust using clean, dry
compressed air, dusting gas, or a dusting squeeze bulb. If dust persists, use a
brush or lens pen.
• If there is dust under the IR filter, you can remove the filter for cleaning. See
Removing the IR Filter in Annex C.
CAMERA BODY
• Do not expose the camera to moisture or excessively dusty environments.
• Do not expose the camera to molten metal.
• The camera body can be cleaned with a lint-free cloth, and optionally a small
amount of rubbing alcohol. Do not use excessive liquids as they may enter the
camera body.
SCREEN
• The touchscreen surface is breakable glass. Do not strike it with hard objects or
put excessive pressure on it.
• The screen should be cleaned with a lint-free or microfiber cloth.
• A small amount of glass cleaner or rubbing alcohol may be applied to the cloth if
required. Do not use excessive amounts, and don't spray glass cleaner directly
on the camera.
