When the camera is not used for a long period of time,
remove the battery and any film from the camera.
Avoid storing the camera for prolonged periods of time in a
damp or salty atmosphere. (Color film should be stored at
the manufacturer’s recommended temperatures,)
Since cameras are precision instruments, avoid shocks
and rough handling.
When the camera is stored for a long time, periodically
remove the camera and release the shutter several times
to keep the camera in good condition.
Cleaning:
Never touch the lens or mirror surfaces. When your camera
is contaminated with dust, fingerprints and so on, blow
away the dust particles with a blower, and clean the lens
surface with lens cleaning tissue and lens cleaner. Merely
blowing dust particles off the mirror surface is
sufficient-
never touch the mirror.
Periodic Check:
Periodically check the camera to make sure that it is in
working order. This is especially important before a photo-
graphic assignment. (Check the battery, flash synchroniza-
tion, mirror and shutter movement, film wind, diaphragm
automation and so on.)
If the camera is malfunctioning, take it to the nearest
authorized Mamiya Service Center for repairs.
