About Condensation (When the lens is fogged up)
•
Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes. Take extra care
when taking pictures otherwise recorded pictures may be displayed with a whitish hue. Be
careful of condensation that may be caused by the following conditions:
– When the camera is used underwater suddenly after being on hot beaches.
– When the camera is moved to a warm area from a cold area, such as at a ski resort.
– When the card/battery door or terminal cover is opened in a humid environment.
• If condensation occurs, try the following things:
– Turn the camera [OFF], and leave it for about 2 hours at the place with constant ambient
temperature. The fog will disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera gets close
to the ambient temperature.
– If the fog does not disappear, it may help to open the card/battery door or terminal cover for
about 2 hours, avoiding places with high temperature and humidity. (Do not open or close
around water)
