Cleaning: When cleaning the camera
body, use a blower to gently remove
dust and lint, then wipe gently with a
soft, dry cloth. After using the camera
at the beach or seaside, wipe off any
sand or salt using a cloth lightly
dampened in pure water and then
dry the camera thoroughly.
Lenses are easily damaged. Dust and
lint should be gently removed with a
blower. When using an aerosol
blower, keep the can vertical to pre-
vent discharge of liquid. To remove
fingerprints and other stains, apply a
small amount of lens cleaner to a soft
cloth and wipe the lens carefully.
Storage: To prevent mold or mildew,
store the camera in a dry, well-venti-
lated area. If you are using an AC
adapter, unplug the adapter to pre-
vent fire. If the product will not be
used for an extended period, remove
the battery to prevent leakage and
store the camera in a plastic bag con-
taining a desiccant. Do not, however,
store the camera case in a plastic bag,
as this may cause the material to
deteriorate. Note that desiccant grad-
ually loses its capacity to absorb
moisture and should be replaced at
regular intervals.
To prevent mold or mildew, take the
camera out of storage at least once a
month. Turn the camera on and
release the shutter a few times before
putting it away.
Store the battery in a cool, dry place.
Replace the terminal cover before
putting the battery away.
Notes on the monitor: The monitor is
constructed with extremely high pre-
cision; at least 99.99% of pixels are
effective, with no more than 0.01%
being missing or defective. Hence
while these displays may contain pix-
els that are always lit (white, red, blue,
or green) or always off (black), this is
not a malfunction and has no effect
on images recorded with the device.
Images in the monitor may be diffi-
cult to see in a bright light.
Do not apply pressure to the display,
as this could cause damage or mal-
function. Dust or lint on the displays
can be removed with a blower. Stains
can be removed by wiping lightly
with a soft cloth or chamois leather.
Should the monitor break, care
should be taken to avoid injury from
broken glass and to prevent liquid
crystal from the display touching the
skin or entering the eyes and mouth.
Moiré: Moiré is an interference pattern
created by the interaction of an
image containing a regular, repeating
grid, such as the pattern of weave in
cloth or windows in a building, with
the camera image sensor grid. In
some cases, it may appear in the form
of lines. If you notice moiré in your
photographs, try changing the dis-
tance to the subject, zooming in and
out, or changing the angle between
the subject and the camera.
