Lens and Phase Differential Sensor
• Never apply too much force when cleaning the surface of
the lens and phase differential sensor. Doing so can
scratch the lens and phase differential sensor surface and
cause malfunction.
• Fingerprints, dust, or any other soiling of the lens and
phase differential sensor can interfere with proper image
recording. Never touch the lens and phase differential
sensor with your fingers. You can remove dust particles
from the lens and phase differential sensor surface by
using a lens blower to blow them off. Next, wipe the
surface of the lens and phase differential sensor with a
soft lens cloth.
• When aiming the camera, make sure that your finger
does not block the phase differential sensor.
Other
• The camera may become slightly warm during use. This
does not indicate malfunction.
• If the exterior of the camera needs cleaning, wipe it with a
soft, dry cloth.
Condensation
• When you bring the camera indoors on a cold day or
otherwise expose it to a sudden change of temperature,
there is the possibility that condensation can form on the
exterior or on interior components. Condensation can
cause malfunction of the camera, so you should avoid
exposing it to conditions that might cause condensation.
• To keep condensation from forming, place the camera
into a plastic bag before moving it into a location that is
much warmer or colder than your current location. Leave
it in the plastic bag until the air inside the bag has a
chance to reach the same temperature as the new
location. If condensation does form, remove the battery
from the camera and leave the battery compartment
cover open for a few hours.
