Viewfinder(removal)
• You may wish to remove the viewfinder for
storage or transport.
Remove the viewfinder cable from the socket at
the front of the camera body. Loosen the locking
screw that holds the unit in place and slide the
viewfinder unit off the bracket.
Camera body and lens
• Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera body or lens. Never use chemically treated cloth or volatile
solvents such as paint thinner.
Video heads
• When mosaic-like noise appears on the playback picture, the video heads may
be dirty. When the video heads are badly contaminated, the camera may show a
blank blue screen.
• Clean the video heads using Canon’s DVM-CL Digital Video Head Cleaning
Cassette. If the “noise” remains, repeat the cleaning (up to maximum of five
times).
• Do not use a wet-type cleaning cassette, as this can cause damage.
