Using the MC
Protector/PL Filter

The MC protector (DMW-LMCH72;
optional) is a transparent filter which affects
neither the colors nor the amount of light,
so it can always be used to protect the
camera’s lens. Also, the PL filter
(DMW-LPL72; optional) reduces diffused
light reflection so you can take pictures with
increased contrast.

1 Detach the lens cap.

2 Attach the MC protector A or the

PL filter
