Notes on Shooting
• Edges of pictures may be cut off if more than one filter is used or if a thick filter
is used.
• When using a flash, flash light may be blocked by the lens body, lens hood, etc.
• Usage conditions may lower the number of images that can be captured.
• Sudden changes in temperature, as for example may occur when the lens
is taken from a cold outdoor environment into a heated area, may cause
condensation inside the lens. Placing the lens in a plastic bag prior to entering a
heated area allows it to adjust gradually to the change in temperature.
• Do not touch electric contacts on cameras.
Maintenance
Blow dust off the lens with a commercially available blower. For the lens, wipe
gently with a lens cleaning paper. Mold may form on the lens surface if the lens is
left dirty.
