Care

  • Please note that if fingerprints, dirt, etc. get onto the lens, picture quality will suffer.
  • When dust or dirt does get on the lens, do not touch it directly with your fingers, and either use a blower (available in stores) to blow it off, or a soft cloth to gently dust it off.
  • After use at the beach or around chemicals, wipe it off particularly carefully.
  • In the unlikely event that your camera fails to work properly, please consult the nearest service center.
  • Never disassemble the camera by yourself, as this is dangerous.
