Caring for your camera and accessories

Camera

Keep the lens clean to help you take sharp, clear photos with the best possible focus. Use a dry, soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the lens and status and image displays to clean off any fingerprints and dust.

Wipe the outside surfaces of the camera with a clean, dry cloth. Never use a rough cloth or abrasive cleaners, which can scratch the camera.

Do not leave the camera in the sun or in a very warm location

￿(for example, inside a car) for long periods.

If you move the camera from a cold to a warm location or vice versa, always allow the camera several minutes to adjust to the current ambient temperature before you use it.

Memory cards

To avoid erasing data from a memory card or damaging the

￿card, do not expose it to heat, moisture, or static electricity.
