About dirt on the image sensor
This camera features an interchangeable lens system so dirt may get inside the camera
body when changing lenses. Depending on the recording conditions, dirt on the image
sensor may appear on the recorded picture.
To prevent debris or dust adhering to internal parts of the body, avoid changing the lens in
a dusty environment and always fit the body cap or a lens when storing the camera.
Remove any dirt on the body cap before attaching it.
Removing dirt on the image sensor
The image sensor is very precise and delicate, so be sure to observe the following when
you do have to clean it yourself.
•
Blow off the dust on the surface of the image sensor with a commercially available blower
brush. Be careful not to blow too strongly.
•
Do not put the blower brush further inside than the lens mount.
•
Do not let the blower brush touch the image sensor as the image sensor may get scratched.
•
Do not use any objects except a blower brush to clean the image sensor.
•
If you cannot remove the dirt or dust with the blower, consult the dealer or Panasonic.

For care of the eye cup on the viewfinder
Always remove the battery after use.
•
Place the removed battery in a plastic bag, and store or keep away from metallic objects (clips,
etc.).
Bring charged spare batteries when going out.
Dust reduction function
This unit has a dust reduction function that will blow off the debris and dust that have
affixed to the front of the imaging device. This function will function automatically when
the camera is turned on, but if you see dust, perform the [Sensor Cleaning] in the
[Setup] menu.
•
If the eye cup becomes dirty, detach it from
the camera body, gently wipe off the dirt with
a soft, dry cloth, and then reattach it to the
camera body.
•
Be careful not to lose the eye cup.
•
Keep the eye cup out of reach of children to
prevent swallowing.
