20. Caring for Your Camera
As with any precision instrument, proper care and
maintenance involve a few simple rules in addition to
common sense. Observing these few rules will keep your
T50 in top condition at all times.
1. The best thing you can do for your T50 is to use it
regularly. In the event that you must store it for quite a
while, first remove it from its case or camera bag.
Remove the batteries. Wrap the camera in a clean, soft
cloth and place it in a cool, dry, dust-free place. If you
store the body and lens separately, attach both the body
and rear lens caps.
2.
Keep the camera and lens out of direct sun
light and
away from "hot spots," such as the trunk, rear window
shelf or glove compartment of a car. Do not store the
camera in a laboratory or other such area where chemi-
cals may cause corrosion.
3. To keep the camera in top condition during prolonged
storage, occasionally insert the batteries and take
several blank shots to "exercise" the mechanisms.
Check the operation of each part before you use the
camera following long storage.
4. Water, spray, excessive humidity, dust and sand are
your camera's worst enemies. Clean it especially well
immediately after you use it at the beach.
5. To clean the exterior of the camera body, first blow off
dust with a blower brush. Wipe off smudges with a
silicone cloth or chamois leather. If smudges remain on
the eyepiece after using a blower brush, wipe it lightly
with lens cleaning tissue which has been moistened with
a couple of drops of lens cleaner.
