Usage Precautions 

—5— 

Notes on cable configurations 

The presence of lighting equipment and television receivers nearby may result in 

video noise. In such cases, change the cable configurations or placement. 

Notes on attaching the lens 

Avoiding dust particles 

When attaching the lens to the camera, stray dust and other particles may adhere 

to the sensor surface and rear surface of the lens. Be careful of the following 

when attaching the lens. 

• Work in a clean environment.

• Do not remove the caps from the camera and lens until immediately before

you attach the lens.

• To prevent dust from adhering to surfaces, point the camera and lens

downward and do not allow the lens surface to come into contact with your

hands or other objects.

• Always use a blower brush to remove any dust that adheres.

Never use your hands or cloth, blow with your mouth, or use other methods to

remove dust.

Phenomena specific to CMOS image sensors 

The following phenomena are known to occur on cameras equipped with CMOS 

image sensors. These do not indicate malfunctions. 

• Aliasing

When shooting straight lines, stripes, and similar patterns, vertical aliasing

(zigzag distortion) may appear on the monitor.

• Blooming

When strong light enters the camera, some pixels on the CMOS image sensor

may receive much more light than they are designed to hold, causing the

accumulated signal charge to overflow into surrounding pixels.This

“blooming” phenomenon can be seen in the image, but does not affect the

operation of the camera.

• Fixed pattern noise

When shooting dark objects in high-temperature conditions, fixed pattern noise

may occur throughout the entire video monitor screen.

• Defective pixels

Defective pixels (white and black pixels) of the CMOS image sensor are

minimized at the factory according to shipping standards. However, as this

phenomenon can be affected by the ambient temperature, camera settings

(e.g., high sensitivity and long exposure), and other factors, be sure to operate

within 

the camera’s specified operating environment

.
