Care of the camera
∫
Handling of the Camera
Do not subject the camera to strong vibration, impacts, or pressure.
These may cause a malfunction or damage.
– Do not drop or knock against hard surfaces.
– Do not push hard on the lens section or monitor.
If sand, dust, or liquid gets on the monitor, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
– If the monitor is closed when such liquids are present, malfunction may result.
– Touch operations may be incorrectly recognised.
Do not place a hand inside the camera mount.
This may cause a failure or damage because the sensor is a precision device.
If you shake the camera while turning the camera off, a sensor may operate or a
rattling sound may be heard. This is caused by the image stabiliser mechanism in
the body. It is not a malfunction.

Splash Resistant
Splash Resistant is a term used to describe an extra level of protection this camera
offers against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust. Splash
Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is subjected
to direct contact with water.
In order to minimise the possibility of damage please be sure the following
precautions are taken:
– Splash Resistant works in conjunction with the lenses that were specifically designed to
support this feature.
– Securely close the doors, socket caps, contact points cover, flash, etc.
– When the lens or cap is removed or a door is open, do not allow sand, dust, and moisture to
enter inside.
– If liquid gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.

Condensation (When the Lens, the Viewfinder or Monitor is Fogged Up)
• Condensation occurs when there are temperature or humidity differences. Be careful because
condensation can lead to stains or mould on the lens, viewfinder, and monitor or cause a
failure.
• If condensation occurs, turn off the camera and leave it for approx. 2 hours. The fog will
disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient
temperature.
