CAMERA MAINTENANCE
1.
Always
keep
the
viewfinder
eyepiece, lens and
filter
as
clean
as
possible.
To
remove loose
dust
and
dirt,
first
use
the
blower
and
then
the
brush
of
a lens brush. Do
not
try
to
wipe
off
granular
dirt
or
dust
-
it's
an
excellent
way
of
scratching
the
glass.
Smudges, such
as
fingerprints,
should
be
carefully
wiped
away
with
either
a lens tissue
or
a clean,
soft
cloth.
Clean,
plain
cotton
handkerchiefs
that
have already been washed a
few
times are
particularly
good
for
this
.
Breathing
on
the
lens
before
wiping
is
effective;
but
be sure
to
wipe
away all
moisture
completely.
Commercial lens cleaners are also effective.
2.
Never
touch
the
mirror
or
the
shutter
curtains.
Minor
dirt
or
spots
on
the
mirror
will
not
affect
the
clarity
of
your
pictures.
3.
Take care
not
to
drop
the
camera
or
knock
it
against
anything
solid. Accidents
or
rough
handling
can easily damage
the
internal
mechanism, even
though
externally
nothing
seems
to
have been
hurt
.
4.
Your
camera
is
not
waterproof.
There
are several
places
where water can get inside and
do
a
great
deal
of
damage. Take care
to
protect
both
body
and lens
from
rain
or
splashing water.
