pack functions.

Carl Zeiss lens

The camera is equipped with a Carl Zeiss
lens which is capable of reproducing sharp
images with excellent contrast.
The lens for the camera has been produced
under a quality assurance system certified
by Carl Zeiss in accordance with the quality
standards of Carl Zeiss in Germany.

Notes on the LCD screen and lens

• The LCD screen is manufactured using

extremely high-precision technology so over
99.99% of the pixels are operational for
effective use. However, some tiny black and/or
bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may
appear on the LCD screen. These dots are a
normal result of the manufacturing process and
do not affect the recording.

• If water droplets or other liquids splash on the

LCD screen and make it wet, immediately wipe
off the screen with a soft cloth. Leaving liquids
on the LCD screen surface can harm the quality
and cause a malfunction.

• Exposing the LCD screen or the lens to direct

sunlight for long periods may cause
malfunctions. Be careful when placing the
camera near a window or outdoors.

• Do not press against the LCD screen. The screen

may be discolored and that may cause a
malfunction.

• Images may trail across on the LCD screen in a

cold location. This is not a malfunction.

• Be careful not to bump the lens, and be careful

not to apply force to it.
