you attach the lens. Failure to lock the mirror may result in lens scratching or other
troubles. Also, if the mirror is not locked down firmly, the autofocus does not work
during shooting.
• You cannot shoot while the mirror is lifted up.
5 After the cleaning is finished,
lower the mirror with a finger
until it clicks.
• Lower the frame of the mirror back
down with a finger. Be careful not to
touch the surface of the mirror.
• Lower the mirror down until it locks
firmly.
Put either of the sides down.
6 Attach the lens and turn the camera off.
• Confirm that the mirror is locked down firmly when you attach the lens.
