Anti-aliasing Filter and IR Filter

Your camera contains an anti-aliasing or IR filter. It may be necessary to remove the filter for cleaning. Although it is not essential, you can wear lint-free, static-free gloves, available from your camera dealer.

The anti-aliasing or IR filter can accommodate a fair amount of dust before cleaning is necessary. It should be cleaned less often than the imager to avoid damage.

Removing, Cleaning, and Re-installing the Anti-aliasing or IR Filter

1 Turn off the camera.

2 Remove the lens from the camera.

CAUTION:

Be very careful when removing the filter, as it is a fragile device.

3 Carefully unscrew the two screws at the sides of the filter bracket using a jewelers screwdriver (Phillips #00).

CAUTION:

Be careful that the screws do not fall into the camera as they can cause damage.
