ETTING UP AND RUNNING

GETTING UP AND RUNNING

This section covers the preparation of the camera. This includes the changing of
batteries, memory cards, and lenses as well as the use of external power supplies.

Align the red mounting index on the lens and
camera body. Carefully insert the lens into the
mount, then turn it clockwise until it clicks into
the locked position. Do not insert the lens at an
angle. If it does not fit, check its orientation with
the index marks. Never force the lens.

Press the lens release all the way in and turn the lens counter-
clockwise until it stops. Carefully remove the lens.

Remove the body cap from the camera and the rear cap from
the lens.

ATTACHING AND REMOVING A LENS

Lens release

This camera uses interchangeable lenses. See page 110 for compatible lenses.
Never touch the inside of the camera, especially the lens contacts and mirror. Do
not leave the interior of the camera exposed to dust or dirt. Replace the caps on
the lens and attach the body cap or another lens to the camera as soon as
possible. Check the body cap or lens is free from dust before mounting.
