Cleaning the camera
Clean the camera surface with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water, and then wipe
the surface with a dry cloth. To avoid damaging the finish or casing, follow the
instructions below.
– Do not use the chemical products such as thinner, benzine, alcohol, disposable cloths,
insect repellent, sunscreen or insecticide, etc.
– Do not touch the camera if you have the above chemical products on your hand.
– Do not leave the camera in contact with rubber or vinyl for a long time.
Cleaning the image sensor
After turning off the camera, remove the lens and blow
off dust on and around the image sensor surface using a
blower.
Notes
• A blower is not supplied with the camera. Use a commercially available blower.
• Do not use a spray-type blower as doing so may scatter water droplets inside the camera body.
• Do not insert the tip of the blower into the cavity beyond the lens mount area, in order to make sure that
the tip of the blower does not touch the image sensor.
• Hold the camera face downward to prevent dust from entering the camera.
• Do not subject the camera to any shock during cleaning.
• When cleaning the image sensor with a blower, do not blow too hard.
Cleaning the lens
• Do not use a cleaning solution containing organic solvents, such as thinner, or benzine.
• When cleaning the lens surface, remove dust with a commercially available blower. In
case of dust that sticks to the surface, wipe it off with a soft cloth or tissue paper
slightly moistened with lens cleaning solution. Wipe in a spiral pattern from the center
to the outside. Do not spray lens cleaning solution directly onto the lens surface.
