Preparations
Before use
■
Camera handling
Keep the camera away from excessive vibration, force, or pressure.
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions, which may damage the
●
lens, monitor, viewfinder, or camera body.
This may also cause the camera to malfunction or prevent recording.
• Dropping or hitting the camera against a hard surface
• Pushing with excessive force on the lens or monitor
Do not hold the lens barrel as you take pictures. There is a risk that your
finger will be trapped as the lens retracts.
When camera is not in use or when using the playback feature, ensure that
the lens is in the stored position.
There are times when rattling sounds or vibrations will come from the
camera, but these are due to the motion of the aperture, the zoom and the
motor and do not indicate a defect.
The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust or sand, or where
water can come into contact with the camera.
■
Condensation (When the lens, the monitor, or viewfinder, is
fogged up)
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to sudden changes of
●
temperature or humidity. Avoid these conditions, which may make the lens,
monitor, or viewfinder dirty, cause mold, or damage the camera.
If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait about two hours before
●
using it. Once the camera adjusts to the surrounding temperature, the fogging
will clear naturally.
Indicates that the menu can be set by pressing [MENU/SET] button.
