Notes on handling the product ••This camera is designed to be dustand moisture-resistant, but is not waterproof or dust-proof. ••When using the power zoom lens, be careful not to get your fingers or any other objects caught in the lens. ••Always attach the lens front cap or body cap when you are not using the camera. To prevent dust or debris from getting inside the camera, remove dust from the body cap before attaching it to the camera. ••Do not leave the lens or the viewfinder exposed to a strong light source such as sunlight. Because of the lens's condensing function, doing so may cause smoke, fire, or a malfunction inside the camera body or the lens. If you have to leave the camera exposed to a light source such as sunlight, attach the lens cap to the lens. GB 6 ••When you shoot with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently far away from the angle of view. Otherwise, the sunlight may enter the focus inside the camera and cause smoke or fire. Even if the sun is slightly away from the angle of view, it may still cause smoke or fire. ••Do not directly expose the lens to beams such as laser beams. That may damage the image sensor and cause the camera to malfunction. ••Do not look at sunlight or a strong light source through the lens when it is detached. This may result in unrecoverable damage to the eyes or cause a malfunction. ••Do not leave the camera, the supplied accessories, or memory cards within the reach of infants. They may be accidentally swallowed. If this occurs, consult a doctor immediately. Notes on the monitor and electronic viewfinder ••The monitor and electronic viewfinder are manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some small black dots and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the monitor and electronic viewfinder. These are imperfections due to the manufacturing process and do not affect the recorded images in any way.

Notes on handling the product
• This camera is designed to be dust-
and moisture-resistant, but is not
waterproof or dust-proof.
• When using the power zoom lens,
be careful not to get your fingers
or any other objects caught in the
lens.
• Always attach the lens front cap
or body cap when you are not
using the camera. To prevent dust
or debris from getting inside the
camera, remove dust from the
body cap before attaching it to the
camera.
• Do not leave the lens or the
viewfinder exposed to a strong light
source such as sunlight. Because
of the lens’s condensing function,
doing so may cause smoke, fire, or
a malfunction inside the camera
body or the lens. If you have to
leave the camera exposed to a light
source such as sunlight, attach the
lens cap to the lens.
• When you shoot with backlighting,
keep the sun sufficiently far away
from the angle of view. Otherwise,
the sunlight may enter the focus
inside the camera and cause smoke
or fire. Even if the sun is slightly
away from the angle of view, it may
still cause smoke or fire.
• Do not directly expose the lens to
beams such as laser beams. That
may damage the image sensor and
cause the camera to malfunction.
• Do not look at sunlight or a strong
light source through the lens when
it is detached. This may result in
unrecoverable damage to the eyes
or cause a malfunction.
• Do not leave the camera, the
supplied accessories, or memory
cards within the reach of infants.
They may be accidentally
swallowed. If this occurs, consult a
doctor immediately.
Notes on the monitor and
electronic viewfinder
• The monitor and electronic
viewfinder are manufactured
using extremely high-precision
technology, and over 99.99% of the
pixels are operational for effective
use. However, there may be some
small black dots and/or bright
dots (white, red, blue or green in
color) that constantly appear on the
monitor and electronic viewfinder.
These are imperfections due to
the manufacturing process and do
not affect the recorded images in
any way.
