About Condensation (When the lens, the viewfinder or
monitor is fogged up)
• Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity
changes. Be careful of condensation since it causes lens,
viewfinder and monitor stains, fungus and camera malfunction.
• If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about
2 hours. The fog will disappear naturally when the temperature of
the camera becomes close to the ambient temperature.
