HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
ENVIRONMENT
■ Your camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to physical
shock.
■ This camera is not waterproof, and cannot be used underwater. Wipe off any
water droplets with a dry cloth as soon as possible. If the camera gets really
wet, promptly consult your nearest Sigma Service Center.
■ Do not leave the camera in a dusty, hot, or highly humid environment for a
long period of time.
■ If the camera is moved from a cold place to a warm room, water droplets may
appear on the camera. Please keep the camera in a bag until it is acclimatized
to the ambient room temperature.
■ The camera will work within a temperature range between 0˚C/32˚F and
+40˚C/104˚F and humidity less than 80% (no condensation). However, in cold
temperatures below 0˚C, the power performance of the battery is reduced.
Please carry a spare battery in these circumstances, and keep the batteries
warm.
■ Static electricity or magnetic fields, may effect the operation of the camera. If
such exposure occurs, please remove the battery from the camera and
re-insert it, to reset the camera’s microprocessors.
HOW TO STORE THE CAMERA
■ If you intend to store the camera for a long time, remove the battery.
■ To avoid growth of fungus, store the camera and lens in a dry, cool and
ventilated place, with a drying agent such as silica gel. Keep your equipment
away from chemicals.
Please read this section before using the camera.
Study and familiarize yourself with the functions of your camera before
using it. No compensation or guarantee is provided for unsatisfactory
pictures or loss of profit, etc.
Carry spare batteries when you use the camera in a cold environment,
on a field trip, or when taking many pictures at one time.
10
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
NOTE ON THE TFT COLOR LCD MONITOR
■ A few pixels may always be lit or may never light on the LCD monitor. This is
not a failure or malfunction. Images recorded with the camera will not be
affected.
■ Because of the normal physical characteristics of the liquid crystal, the
reaction of the display may become slow at low temperatures. At high
temperatures, the display may become dark, but it will return to normal at
room temperature.
SD MEMORY CARD AND MULTIMDEIA CARD
(SOLD SEPARATELY)
The DP1 camera uses a SD memory card, SDHC memory card and
multimedia card.
• In this instruction manual, SD memory card, SDHC memory card and
Multimedia card are referred to as the ‘Card’.
• We recommend SDHC memory card or high speed SD memory card to store
images.
• SD memory card or SDHC memory card incorporate
the write protection switch, which prevents writing or
formatting the card accidentally. If the switch is
placed in the ‘LOCK’ position, it is not possible to
overwrite or erase your data accidentally.
■ We do not recommend using a multimedia card in continuous shooting or
Movie mode due to the slow writing speed.
■ Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heating device.
■ Avoid storing cards in environments of high temperature and humidity or
where static electricity or electromagnetic fields may be generated
■ For proper usage of the card, please refer to their instruction manuals.
■ The “Delete” feature of the Camera and PC may not delete the data in the
memory card completely. Some data might still remain. If you wish to remove
all data from card securely, please use third party software.
