Using the Lenses (Sold Separately)
zWhen attaching the wide converter, tele-converter or
close-up lens be sure to screw it on securely. If they come
loose, they may fall from the lens adapter, posing risk of
injury from shattered glass.
zNever look into the sun or into strong light through the wide
converter, tele-converter or close-up lens as this can result
in blindness or impairment of vision.
zIf you use the flash when shooting with these attachments,
the outer area of the recorded image (especially lower right
corner) will come out relatively dark.
zWhen using the tele-converter, please set the focal length
to the telephoto end. At other zoom settings, the image will
appear as if its corners have been cut off.
zWhen using the wide converter, please set the camera to
the wide angle end.
zIf you use the viewfinder for shooting, a portion of the view
will be blocked by these attachments. Please use the LCD
monitor.
