Cleaning the Screen or Interior
When cleaning the screen or the interior of the
viewfinder, detach the viewfinder from the camcorder,
then clean it taking care not to damage the
components.
For information about detaching the viewfinder from the
camcorder, see the procedure explained in “Attaching the
Viewfinder to a Camcorder” on page 5(E).
To remove dust from the screen or the mirror
Use a dust blower.
To clean the lens or the protecting filter
Use a commercially available lens cleaner.
Note
Do not use organic solvents such as thinners.
Disassembling the eyepiece for cleaning
1
Detach the eyepiece from the viewfinder barrel.
For the detaching procedure, see “Detaching the
Eyepiece” on page 7(E).
2
Remove the eyecup from the eyecup holder.
3
Remove the protecting filter, together with the
packing ring, from inside the eyecup holder.
4
Detach the protecting filter from the packing ring.
Fog-proof filter
Depending on the temperature and humidity, the
protecting filter may mist, especially if you breathe
near it. You can replace the protecting filter with an
optional fog-proof filter (Part No. 1-547-341-11) to
prevent the fogging.
Attaching the fog-proof filter
Detach the protecting filter from the packing ring, and
replace it with the fog-proof filter.
Note
When cleaning the fog-proof filter, wipe the filter very
gently with a soft cloth to avoid impairing the anti-
fogging effect.
