Storing
When storing your camera, wrap it in a clean, soft cloth and place it in a well-ventilated,
cool, dry, dust-free place. Be sure to keep the camera out of direct sunlight, and away from
“hot spots” such as the trunk or rear window shelf of a car. Avoid places where chemical
agents such as moth balls are used, and in extreme humidity, use a desiccant. To prevent
corrosion, avoid storing the camera in a laboratory or other location where chemicals are
used. Also, do not store the camera in a drawer or other non-ventilated place. Remove the
battery if you do not expect to use the camera for several days. It is also recommended to
take the camera out and release the shutter occasionally to prevent build up of mold or
corrosion.
A minute amount of battery power is used even when the Main switch is set to Off. This
will affect the camera’s shooting capacity after several days of storage.
Carefully check the camera’s operation after lengthy storage. When the camera has not
been used for a long time, or before an important trip or shooting assignment, we
recommend having the camera thoroughly tested at an authorized service center.
