---10° C. Sudden changes in temperature will often cause moisture to condense inside or outside your camera. This is a possible source of rust, which may be extremely harmful to the mechanism. Furthermore, if the camera is taken from a warm temperature to a sub-freezing one, further damage may result from the formation of icelets. Thus, sudden temperature changes should be avoided as much as possible, As a guide, a temperature change of 10°C should be allowed to take place gradually over a period of at least 30 minutes. If this is not possible, keeping the camera in its case or bag will help somewhat in minimizing the effects of a rapid temperature change. 5. Vibration experienced when you are traveling in a car, plane, or ship, can cause screws to loosen. To minimize this problem use foam-rubber padding about one inch thick to line the buttom of your camera bag. 6. When mounting your camera on a tripod, make sure the tripod screw is no longer than 5.5mm, which is the depth of your camera's tripod socket. If you use a longer screw, you will possibly puncture the tripod socket, after which the camera will not function properly. Precautions on LCD Display • In temperatures over approximately 60°C, the LCD display may darken. It will return to its normal condition under normal temperatures. • In low temperatures, the LCD display may respond more slowly. This is due to the characteristics of the liquid used and is not a malfunction. Backup Circuits for LCD Display Even when the battery is removed for replacement during shooting, the built-in backup circuits retains data such as the frame number and the ISO film speed in memory until a new battery is inserted. Special notes on accessories • When the Auto Bellows A is combined with this camera, the Double Release A cannot be used. When shooting with the camera held vertically, keep the camera's grip on the upper side. • When using the "Adapter K for 645 Lens" with this camera, note that the fixing screw may hit the camera, depending on where the adapter is fitted. • The Magnifier F, Eyecup F, and Hotshoe Cover F, which are the accessories for the SFX/SF1, cannot be used with your camera. Use the Magnifier M. 61•
