Handling Precautions
Screen, Viewfinder, and LCD Panel
• Although the screen and viewfinder are manufactured with very
high precision technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, 0.01 °/c,
or fewer of the pixels may be dead, and there may also be spots of
black, red, or other colors. This is not a malfunction. They do not
affect the images recorded.
• If the screen and viewfinder are left on for a prolonged period, screen
burn-in may occur where you see remnants of what was displayed.
However, this is only temporary and will disappear when the camera
is left unused for a few days.
• The screen display may seem slightly slow in low temperatures or
may look black in high temperatures. It will return to normal at room
temperature.
Shutter
• Shutter blades may become scuffed from shutter operations, but this
does not indicate damage.
Cards
To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following:
• Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive
force, physical shock, or vibration.
• Do not touch the card's electronic contacts with your fingers or
anything metallic.
• Do not affix any stickers, etc. on the card.
• Do not store or use the card near anything that has a strong
magnetic field, such as a television, speakers, or magnets. Also
avoid places prone to having static electricity.
• Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source.
• Store the card in a case.
• Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.
Lens
• After detaching the lens from the camera, put down
the lens with the rear end up and attach the rear
lens cap to avoid scratching the lens surface and
electrical contacts (1 ).
