About the grip The grip is applied with a special coating. The grip may be discolored if it is rubbed with a dark colored cloth, leather, etc. On storing Be sure to attach the front lens cap when not using the camera. Notes on the screen and lens • The screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology, and over 99.99% of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or green) may appear on the screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process, and do not affect the recording. • There are magnets attached to the back of the screen and in the area around the flash. Do not put objects that are affected by magnetic fields, such as a floppy disk or a credit card to the screen or the camera body. • When the lens is operating, be careful not to let your finger be caught by the lens. On using the lenses and accessories It is recommended that you use Sony lenses/accessories designed to suit the characteristics of this camera. Using the products of other manufacturers may cause the camera not to operate to its capability, or result in accidents and malfunctions of the camera. Notes on the flash • Do not carry the camera by the flash unit, or use excessive force on it. • If water, dust or sand get into the open flash unit, it may cause a malfunction. • Be sure to keep your fingers out of the way when you press the flash down.
