Sony DSC-W690 - Manual (Page 170)

If the camera is brought directly from a cold to a warm location, moisture may condense inside or
outside the camera. This moisture condensation may cause a malfunction of the camera.
If moisture condensation occurs, turn off the camera and wait about an hour for the moisture to
evaporate. Note that if you attempt to shoot with moisture remaining inside the lens, you will be
unable to record clear images.
On image data compatibility
The camera conforms with DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) universal standard established
by JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association).
Sony does not guarantee that the camera will play back images recorded or edited with other
equipment, or that other equipment will play back images recorded with the camera.
Notes on the screen and lens
The screen is manufactured using extremely high-precision technology so over 99.99% of the pixels
are operational for effective use. However, some tiny black and/or bright dots (white, red, blue or
green) may appear on the screen. These dots are a normal result of the manufacturing process and
do not affect the recording.
Exposing the screen or the lens to direct sunlight for long periods may cause malfunctions. Be
careful when placing the camera near a window or outdoors.
Do not press against the screen. The screen may be discolored and that may cause a malfunction.
Images may trail across on the screen in a cold location. This is not a malfunction.
Be careful not to bump the movable lens, and be careful not to apply force to it.
