∫Lens Care
≥Sand and dust can damage the lens. Make
sure that no sand or dust gets inside the lens
or the terminals when using the lens on a
beach, etc.
≥This lens is not waterproof. If drops of water
get onto the lens, wipe the lens with a dry
cloth.
≥Do not press the lens with excessive force.
≥When there is dirt (water, oil, and fingerprints, etc.)
on the surface of the lens, the picture may be
affected. Lightly wipe the surface of the lens with a
soft, dry cloth before and after taking pictures.
≥Do not place the lens mount facing downwards.
Do not allow the lens contact points 1to become
dirty.
∫About Condensation (Fogging of the
Lens)
≥Condensation occurs when there are differences
in temperature and humidity as described below.
Condensation can cause the lens to become dirty
and lead to mold and malfunctioning, so exercise
caution in the following situations:
– When the camera is brought indoors from outside
during cold weather
– When the camera is brought into an air-
conditioned car
– When cold air from an air conditioner is directly
blown onto the lens
– In humid places
≥Put the camera into a plastic bag to allow it to
acclimatize to the surrounding temperature in
order to prevent condensation. If condensation
occurs, turn the power off and leave it for about
two hours. Once the camera acclimatizes to the
surrounding temperature the condensation will go
away naturally.

∫Acerca de la condensación
(Empañamiento del objetivo)
≥La condensación ocurre cuando se encuentra una
diferencia en la temperatura y humedad como se
describe abajo. La condensación puede hacer
ensuciar el objetivo y producir hongos y un
funcionamiento defectuoso, por lo tanto ponga
cuidado en las situaciones a continuación:
– Cuando lleva la cámara en casa desde el aire
libre durante un tiempo frío
– Cuando lleva la cámara dentro de un coche con
aire acondicionado
– Cuando sopla en el objetivo aire frío desde un
acondicionador de aire
– En lugares húmedos
≥Para impedir la condensación, meta la cámara en
una bolsa de plástico para que se aclimate a la
temperatura ambiente. Si ocurre condensación,
apague la alimentación y la deje así durante dos
horas. Una vez de que la cámara se haya
aclimatado a la temperatura ambiente en
empañamiento desaparece naturalmente.
