This camera is not dust/drip/water proof.
Avoid using the camera in places with a lot of dust, water, sand, etc.
• Liquid, sand and other foreign material may get into the space around the lens, buttons,
etc. Be particularly careful since it may not just cause malfunctions, but it may also
become irreparable.
– Places with a lot of sand or dust.
– Places where water can come into contact with this unit, such as when using it on a
rainy day or at the beach.
Do not place your hands inside the mount of the digital camera body. Since
the sensor unit is a precision apparatus, it may cause a malfunction or
damage.
If sand, dust, or liquids such as water droplets adhere to the monitor, wipe them off
with a dry soft cloth.

About Condensation (When the lens or monitor is fogged up)
• Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes. Be careful of
condensation since it causes lens and monitor stains, fungus and camera malfunction.
• If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about 2 hours. The fog will
disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient
temperature.
For smoother recording, we recommend updating the firmware of the
interchangeable lens to the latest version.
