Preparing the Camera
This section outlines the basic preparations for the camera such as attaching a lens and attaching the modular
units to the camera: monitor unit, handle unit, eye cup, etc. This section also covers how to adjust the viewfinder
and LCD screen. Your camera is nothing if not versatile and you can choose the configuration that best fits your
needs and shooting conditions.
NOTES
• When changing the camera’s configuration, be careful
not to obstruct in any way the cooling fan’s air vents.
Preparing the Lens
As much as possible, attach and remove the lens quickly and in a clean environment free of dust. Refer also to
the instruction manual of the lens used.
IMPORTANT
• When attaching/removing a lens, avoid direct sunlight or strong light sources. Also, be careful not to drop the
camera or lens.
NOTES
• Be careful not to touch the lens mount or any components inside the lens mount area.
• Replace the body cap to the lens mount immediately after removing the lens from the camera.
• Keep the body cap clean and free from dust or dirt particles.
