A Note about condensation
●
Condensation occurs when there is a change in temperature or humidity, such as when
the unit is taken from outside or a cold room to a warm room. Please be careful, as it
may cause the lens to become soiled, moldy, or damaged.
●
When taking the unit to a place that has a different temperature, if the unit is accustomed
to the room temperature of the destination for about one hour, condensation can be
prevented. When the difference in temperature is severe, place the unit in a plastic bag
or the like, remove air from the bag, and seal the bag.
●
When condensation occurs, turn off this unit, bring the unit indoors in a room
temperature, remove the Rear Cap and lens cap and leave this unit for approximately 2
hours. Once this unit adjusts to the ambient temperature, the condensation will
disappear naturally. Note: Do not leave this unit open (without the caps) outdoors or
near water, humid locations, or salt water/air.
●
The inside of this unit is not waterproof. Condensation can cause water droplets which
will cause malfunction.
