Carefully loosen the lens mount lock ring using the supplied DVC lock ring
wrench.
•
Orient the camera so that the lens mount is pointing downward and carefully
unscrew the lens mounting ring.
•
Place the camera face down on a clean, dry surface to prevent particles from
accumulating on the CCD faceplate.
•
Use a CLEAN, DRY (preferably brand-new), camel-hair lens cleaning brush
(such as those used by photographers) to gently wipe the particles off of the
CCD faceplate.
•
Re-examine the CCD faceplate after removing the dust. If a smudge is still
visible, proceed by dipping a clean, lint-free cotton swab in ethyl or isopropyl
alcohol. The swab should be saturated, but not dripping.
•
Carefully draw the swab once across the CCD faceplate surface, then rotate the
swab 180 degrees to expose the fresh surface and draw it across the filter surface
again. Be careful not to pool alcohol on the glass surface.
•
Re-examine once again and repeat the process once, if necessary.
If contamination continues to be a problem, please call DVC Customer
Service for assistance.
Caution: Ethyl and isopropyl alcohols are highly flammable! Do not use
near extreme heat, arcing electrical equipment (such as space heaters) or
open flame! Use only with proper ventilation. Follow all safety
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the alcohol product.
