Use original ALEXA-Mini or AMIRA lens mounts only.
Before each lens mount change, always switch the camera off and disconnect all
power sources.
Changing the lens mount while the camera is powered may permanently damage
the camera and lens mount.
Protect sensor and electrical system: Always store the camera with a lens mount
properly installed and capped.
Immediately replace each lens mount after removal.
Change lens mounts in dust-free environment only.
NOTICE
After each lens mount change, always check the back focus of the camera.
Have the back focus always corrected by properly skilled personnel.
Back focus correction requires special tools and training that meet ARRI guidelines.
For all back focus issues, contact a qualified ARRI Service Center.
