Camera Care
• Do Not Drop
Do not drop the camera or lens or subject them to blows. The product
may malfunction if subjected to strong shocks or vibration.
• Keep Dry
Keep the camera dry. Rusting of the internal mechanism caused by water
inside the camera can not only be expensive to repair but can in fact
cause irreparable damage.
• Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature
Sudden changes in temperature, such as those that occur when entering
or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation inside
the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case
or plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature.
• Keep Away from Strong Magnetic Fields
Static charges or the magnetic fields produced by equipment such as
radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, corrupt data stored
on the memory card, or affect the product's internal circuitry.
• Do Not Leave the Lens Pointed at the Sun
Do not leave the lens pointed at the sun or other strong light source for
extended periods. Intense light may damage the image sensor or cause
fading or "burn in". Photographs taken with the camera may exhibit a
white blur effect.
