Using Conversion 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 the built-in flash is used with the lens hood attached, the
outer edges of shot images (especially the lower right) may be
darkened.
zWhen using the wide converter, set the camera to the
maximum wide angle.
zWhen using the tele-converter, set the camera near the
maximum telephoto. At other zoom settings, the image will
appear as if its corners have been cut off.
It is not possible to attach a lens hood or filter to the wide
converter or tele-converter.
