Before use
 
Camera handling
Keep the camera away from excessive vibration, force, 
or pressure.
 
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions, 
which may damage the lens, LCD monitor, or camera 
body. This may also cause the camera to malfunction or 
prevent recording.
 
• Dropping or hitting the camera against a hard surface
 
• Sitting down with the camera in your pants pocket or 
forcing it into a full bag
 
• Adding accessories to the camera strap
 
• Pushing with excessive force on the lens or LCD monitor
The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or 
waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust 
or sand, or where water can come into contact with the 
camera.
 
Avoid using the camera under the following conditions, 
which present a risk that sand, water, or foreign material 
may enter the camera through the lens or openings around 
buttons. Be especially careful, because these conditions 
may damage the camera and such damage may not be 
repairable.
 
• In extremely dusty or sandy places
 
• In the rain or by the shore, where the camera may be 
exposed to water
 
 Condensation (lens clouding) 
 
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to 
sudden changes of temperature or humidity. Avoid these 
conditions, which may make the lens dirty, cause mold, or 
damage the camera.
 
If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait 
about two hours before using it. Once the camera adjusts 
to the surrounding temperature, clouded lenses will clear 
naturally.
