Safety Precautions

Safety Precautions

Do not look at the sun or a bright light source

through the lens or camera. Doing so could result in

loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through the

lens is especially hazardous.

Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do not

leave the lens under the sun without the lens cap

attached. This is to prevent the lens from concentrating

the sun’s rays, which could cause a fire.

Conventions used in this instruction

Warning to prevent lens or camera malfunction

or damage.

Supplementary notes on using the lens and

taking pictures.

Handling Cautions

If the lens is taken from a cold environment into a

warm one, condensation may develop on the lens

surface and internal parts. To prevent condensation

in this case, first put the lens into an airtight plastic bag

before taking it from a cold to warm environment. Then

take out the lens after it has warmed gradually. Do the

same when taking the lens from a warm environment

into a cold one.

Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in a car

in direct sunlight.

High temperatures can cause the

lens to malfunction.
