On the monitor and lens

The monitor is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99 % of the pixels are operational for effective use. However, there may be some tiny black points and/or bright points (white, red, blue or green in color) that constantly appear on the monitor. These points are normal in the manufacturing process and do not affect the images in any way.

Exposing the monitor or lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause a malfunction. Exercise caution when placing the product near a window or outdoors.

Do not press against the monitor. The monitor may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction.

Images may trail across on the monitor in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.

If the monitor has drops of water or other liquids on it, wipe it with a soft cloth. If the monitor stays wet, the surface of the monitor may change or deteriorate. This may cause a malfunction.

When the battery pack is discharged, the product may shut off while the lens is still extended. Insert a charged battery pack, then turn the product on again.

Make sure not to bump the lens or subject it to force.
