Image sensor dust – CentralDS tests each camera with test exposures to check the image sensor is
dust free before shipping. However about 2 – 4 % of the customer reported dusts on the image
sensor. If you see marks on your image due to the dusts on the image sensor, please contact
CentralDS for servicing. Do not disassemble the camera to clean the dusts.

Caution with the cooling system activated – the TEC cooling system for the image sensor is designed
to emit substantial amounts of heat to outside. This does not cause any problem on the camera
operation but a minor burn can be caused if skin is contacted with the cooling system for extended
period time.
