CARE AND STORAGE
General
Dust and moisture are harmful agents affecting your camera. Remove the camera from the case
and store it in a dry,
or similar volatile chemical materials to avoid
the possibility of damage to metal surfaces. When storing the camera for a long period of
time, remove the battery. Wipe battery surfaces with a dry cotton cloth before
the camera.
Avoid dropping or hitting the camera.
Never store the camera where temperatures ex-
ceed 50°C (122°F). When you use the camera in temperatures under
this, warm the camera before use. Protect against
excess moisture by using packs of silica gel or
other desiccant in the storage area.
After use near the ocean, wipe the camera sur-
faces clean with a soft cloth; never leave salt on the camera. (Salt may be airborne near the
ocean and collect on the camera even though it
has not been in direct contact with water.) Avoid excessive tightening when mounting on
a tripod.
