LENS, FILTERS, CLOSE-UP LENS

The outer surfaces of the lens, filters and close-up lens should be

kept absolutely clean. For cleaning them use the special soft tissue-

paper sold in photo stores. Lenses should not be constantly rubbed,

as this might damage the anti-reflex coating.

Always put the lens cap on the lens when the camera is not in use.

Special care should be taken to

avoid

getting dust or finger prints

on the glass surfaces (perspiration is harmful to glass).

LUBRICATION

Like a high-quality watch, the camera rarely needs to be lubricated. When new, it contains

a reserve of grease and oil sufficient for two to three years. Thereafter it is advisable to

turn in the camera to a Paillard-Bolex distributor for fresh lubrication ..

CARE OF CAMERA IN TROPICAL REGIONS

Certain precautions must be taken to protect both camera and film against heat and

humidity.

Airtight boxes and protective chemicals for your camera are available on the market.

Be extra careful with your equipment in the tropics.
