Installing a Filter
This camera supports use of commercially available 58mm
filters.
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to install the TELE CONVERTER ADAPTOR
before installing a filter. If you attach a filter directly
to the lens without the TELE CONVERTER
ADAPTOR, the convex surface of the lens will come
into contact with the filter and damage it.
• Carefully read the user documentation that comes
with filters for information about how to use them
properly.
• Keep the following points in mind when purchasing a
filter.
— Use of a filter can cause blackening around the
edges of images.
— Use of a filter may interfere with proper operation
of Auto Focus and flash.
— Filters may not deliver the same results as those
obtained with a film camera.
• Do not use multiple filters.
• Use of a commercially available lens hood may
cause blackening around the edges of images.
■Optical Zoom Precautions
• Optical zoom is possible only up to about 2X while a wide
converter is installed. This is to prevent damage to the
wide converter by contact with the camera lens as it
extends.
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to reinstall the lens ring on the camera lens
when you are not using a conversion lens. Optical
zoom is possible only up to about 2X while the lens
ring is not installed properly, even if the camera does
not have the wide converter installed.
