Attaching a Lens

45

Attach a Q-mount lens to the camera’s body.

The steps will be described here using a 01 STANDARD PRIME lens.

• When attaching/removing the lens, choose an environment that is relatively free of dirt and dust.

Keep the body mount cover on the camera when a lens is not attached.

Be sure to attach the lens mount cover and lens cap to the lens after removing it.

Do not insert any fingers into the camera mount or touch the CMOS sensor.

The camera body and lens mount incorporate lens information contacts. Dirt, dust, or corrosion may damage the electrical system. Please contact a PENTAX Service Center for professional cleaning.

We assume no responsibility nor liability for accidents, damages and malfunctions resulting from the use of lenses made by other manufacturers.

1 Make sure that the camera is turned off.

2 Remove the body mount cover (1) and lens mount cover (2).

Be sure to put the lens down with the lens mount side facing upward to protect the lens mount from damage.

3 Align the Lens mount index (red dots: 3) on the camera and the lens, and secure by turning the lens clockwise until it clicks.

2 GettingStarted

After attaching, turn the lens counterclockwise to check that the lens is locked in place.
