Anti-aliasing and IR Filters
Your camera contains an anti-aliasing or an IR filter. It may be necessary to remove the
filter for cleaning. While it is not essential, you can wear lint-free, static-free gloves,
available from your camera dealer.
The antialiasing or IR filter can accommodate a fair amount of dust before cleaning is
necessary. It should be cleaned less often than the imager to avoid damage.
Removing, Cleaning, and Re-installing the Anti-aliasing Filter
1 Turn off the camera.
2 Remove the lens from the
camera.
☛
Be very careful when
removing the filter, as it is a
very fragile device.
3 Carefully unscrew the captive
screw at the bottom of the filter
bracket using a jewelers
screwdriver.
