To improve the dust- and splash-proof performance, the mount of
the interchangeable lens (H-HS12035) is embedded with the lens
mount rubber. If you change the lens repeatedly, friction with the
lens mount rubber may leave scratches on the camera’s mount.
However, those scratches do not affect the performance of this unit.
For the replacement of the lens mount rubber, contact Panasonic.
About the Monitor/Viewfinder
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the Monitor/
Viewfinder screen. However there may be some dark or bright spots (red, blue or
green) on the screen. This is not a malfunction. Though the Monitor/Viewfinder
screen parts are produced with highly controlled precision technology, some
pixels may be inactive or always lit. The spots will not be recorded on pictures
on a card.
