Caring for the Camera and Battery: Cautions
●
Monitor/Viewfinder
•
The monitors (including viewfinder) are constructed with extremely
high precision; at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than
0.01% being missing or defective. Hence while these displays may
contain pixels that are always lit (white, red, blue, or green) or always off
(black), this is not a malfunction. Images recorded with the device are
unaffected. Your understanding is requested.
•
Images in the monitor may be difficult to see in a bright light.
•
Do not apply pressure to the monitor. The monitor could malfunction or
suffer damage. Dust or lint on the monitor can be removed with a
blower. Stains can be removed by wiping the monitor lightly with a soft
cloth or chamois leather. Should the monitor break, care should be
taken to avoid injury from broken glass. Be careful that liquid crystal
from the monitor does not touch the skin or enter the eyes or mouth.
•
Should you experience any of the following symptoms while framing
shots in the viewfinder, discontinue use until your condition improves:
- nausea, eye pain, eye fatigue,
- dizziness, headache, stiffness in your neck or shoulders,
- queasiness or loss of hand-eye coordination, or
- motion sickness.
•
The display may rapidly flicker on and off during burst photography.
Watching the flickering display could cause you to feel unwell.
Discontinue use until your condition improves.

Bright Lights and Back-Lit Subjects
Noise in the form of lines may in rare cases appear in pictures that include
bright lights or back-lit subjects.
