Cleaning:
When cleaning
the
camera
body,
use
a blower
to
gently remove
dust and lint, then wipe gently with a
soft, dry
cloth.
After using the camera
at the beach or
seaside,
wipe
off
any
sand
or
salt
using
a
cloth
lightly
dampened in pure water and
then
dry the camera thoroughly.
The
lens
is
easily damaged. Dust and
lint should
be
gently removed with a
blower.
When
using
an
aerosol
blower, keep the
can
vertical
to
pre-
vent discharge
of
liquid.
To
remove
fingerprints and other stains from the
lens, apply a small
amount
of
lens
cleaner
to
a soft
cloth and wipe
the
lens
carefully.
Storage:
To
prevent mold or mildew,
store the camera in a dry, well-venti-
lated area.
If
you are using an
AC
adapter, unplug the adapter to prevent
fire. If the product
will not
be
used
for
an
extended period, remove the bat-
tery to prevent leakage
and
store the
camera in a plastic bag containing a
desiccant.
Do
not, however, store the
camera
case
in a plastic bag,
as
this
may
cause
the material to deteriorate.
Note that desiccant
gradually
loses
its
capacity
to
absorb
moisture
and
should
be
replaced
at regular intervals.
To
prevent mold or
mildew, take the
camera
out
of
storage at least once a
month.
Turn
the
camera
on
and
release
the shutter a few times before
putting
it
away.
Store
the battery in a cool, dry place.
Replace
the
terminal
cover
before
putting the battery
away.
Notes
on
the
monitor
and
viewfinder:
These
displays may contain a few pixels that
are
always lit or that do
not
light. This
is
common
to
all
TFT
LCD
displays and
does
not
indicate
a
malfunction.
Images
recorded with the product
are
unaffected.
Images
in the
monitor
may be diffi-
cult
to
see
in a bright light.
Do
not
apply pressure
to
the displays,
as
this
could
cause damage or
mal-
function. Dust or lint on the displays
can
be removed with a blower. Stains
can be removed by
wiping
lightly
with
a soft
cloth
or
chamois leather.
Should
the
monitor
or
viewfinder
break,
care
should
be
taken
to
avoid
injury from broken
glass
and
to
pre-
vent
liquid
crystal from the display
touching
the
skin or
entering
the
eyes
and mouth.
Moire:
Moire
is
an
interference pattern
created
by
the
interaction
of
an
image containing a regular, repeating
grid, such
as
the pattern
of
weave in
cloth
or windows in a building, with
the
camera
image
sensor
grid.
In
some
cases,
it
may appear in the form
of
lines.
If
you notice
moire in your
photographs,
try
changing the dis-
tance
to
the subject, zooming
in
and
out, or changing the angle between
the subject and the camera.
