).
Be sure to put the lens down with the lens
mount side facing upward to protect the
lens mount from damage when there is
no lens mount cover on the lens.
When attaching or removing a lens, choose an environment that is relatively
free of dirt and dust.
Keep the body mount cover on the camera when a lens is not attached.
Be sure to attach the lens mount cover and lens cap to the lens after
removing the lens from the camera.
Do not insert any fingers into the camera mount or touch the mirror.
The camera body and lens mount incorporate lens information contacts. Dirt,
dust, or corrosion on the contacts may damage the electrical system. Please
contact a PENTAX Service Center for professional cleaning.
Some functions will be restricted when one of lenses described in (b) is used
with the aperture ring set to the position other than s, or when a lens other
than listed above and/or other accessories are used. Refer to “Functions
Available with Various Lens Combinations” (p.255) for details.
If a lens for which the focal length information cannot be automatically
obtained is used, the [Input Focal Length] screen appears when the camera
is turned on. Refer to “Setting the Focal Length” (p.258) for details.
We assume no responsibility nor liability for accidents, damages and
malfunctions resulting from the use of lenses made by other manufacturers.
