About Condensation (When the lens

or the Viewfinder is fogged up)

Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes as described below. Be careful of condensation since it causes lens stains, fungus and camera malfunction.

When the camera is taken from the cold outdoors to the warm indoors.

When the camera is taken from outside to inside an air-conditioned car.

When cool wind from an air conditioner etc. blows directly on the camera.

In humid places

To prevent condensation, put the camera in a plastic bag until the temperature of the camera is close to the ambient temperature. If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about

2 hours. The fog will disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient temperature.

When not using the camera for a long

period of time

Store the battery in a cool and dry place with a relatively stable temperature. [Recommended temperature:

15 oC to 25 oC (59 oF to 77 oF), Recommended humidity: 40% to 60%]

Always remove the battery and the card from the camera.

If the battery is left inserted in the camera it will discharge even if the camera is turned off. If the battery continues to be left in the camera, it will discharge excessively and may become unusable even if charged.

When storing the battery for a long period of time, we recommend charging it once a year. Remove the battery from the camera and store it again after it has completely discharged.

We recommend storing the camera with a desiccant (silica gel) when you keep it in a closet or a cabinet.
