CAMERA CARE
Camera care
›
Protect your camera from knocks and blows.
Loop the hand strap over your wrist to make
sure you do not drop it.
›
Protect the camera from damp and wet
conditions, constant sunshine and sand.
This is particularly important when the cam-
era is open to change a film.
›
Keep the film pressure plate clean and oc-
casionally clean it off with a soft leather
cloth. Use a brush to clean the inside of the
camera.
›
A soft brush is also the best tool for cleaning
the lens. Fingerprints are best removed with
lens cleaning paper. If condensation forms
on a cold lens when it is taken indoors, wait
for a few minutes until the moisture evapo-
rates by itself.
›
Take the battery out of the camera if you do
not use it for a prolonged period.
