Usage cautions and notes
About AC adaptor (supplied)
●
Keep at least 1 m (3.3 feet) away from AM radio (may cause radio interference).
●
The AC adaptor (supplied) may generate whirring sounds when it is being used. This is not a
malfunction.
●
After use, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet. (A very small
amount of current is consumed if it is left connected.)
Lens
●
If lens is dirty:
Images may appear slightly white if lens is dirty (fingerprints, etc.). Turn the power on, hold the
extracted lens barrel with your fingers, and gently wipe the lens surface with a soft, dry cloth.
●
Do not leave the lens exposed to direct sunlight.
●
Do not touch the lens barrier, as this may damage lens. Be careful when removing camera from
bag, etc.
When using a tripod or unipod
●
Do not apply excessive force or tighten screws when they are crooked. (This may damage the
camera, screw hole, or label.)
●
Ensure that the tripod is stable. (Refer to the tripod instructions.)
●
You may not be able to remove the card or the battery when using a tripod or unipod.

●
Short-sighted or long-sighted persons, those with differences in the sight of their right and left eyes,
and those with astigmatism are advised to correct their vision by wearing glasses etc.
