Handling Precautions
LCD Monitor
Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision technology
with over 99.99% effective pixels, there may be a few dead pixels among the
remaining 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying only black or red, etc., are
not a malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded.
If the LCD monitor is left on for a prolonged period with the same screen displayed,
screen burn-in may occur where you see remnants of what was displayed. However,
this is only temporary and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days.
The LCD monitor display may seem slow in low temperatures, or look black in
high temperatures. It will return to normal at room temperature.
After changing the LCD monitor’s brightness settings, the display may look a little coarse,
depending on the subject. This is not a malfunction and will not affect the recorded image.
Cards
To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following:
Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive force, physical
shock, or vibration.
Do not touch the card’s electronic contacts with your fingers or anything metallic.
Do not affix any stickers, etc., on the card.
Do not store or use the card near anything having a strong magnetic field such as
a TV set, speakers, or magnet. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity.
Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
Store the card in a case.
Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.
Lens
After detaching the lens from the camera, put down the lens with
the rear end up and attach the lens caps to avoid scratching the
lens surface and electrical contacts.
Cautions regarding Prolonged Use
If you use continuous shooting, Live View shooting, or movie
shooting for a prolonged period, the camera may become hot.
Although this is not a malfunction, holding the hot camera for a
long period can cause slight skin burns.
About smudges adhering to the front of the sensor
Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases lubricant from the
camera’s internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. If visible spots still
remain after the automatic sensor cleaning, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon
Service Center is recommended.
About the lens mount
Periodically cleaning the camera’s body and lens mount with a soft lens cleaning cloth
is recommended.
