Precautions and Safety Guidelines
Storage and Transport Precautions
•
Keep the protective caps on the lens when not mounted to
the camera or not in operation. The rear cap secures the
net holder on the rear part of the lens.
•
The SIGNATURE PRIME lenses are delivered in a rugged
aluminum case. Always store and transport the lens in
the included aluminium case. A lock can be used on the
latches of the case to secure the case. The case can be
used for transport of the lens to the ARRI service centers.
Do not put the case underwater.
•
Do not store the lens in places where it may be subject
to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, high humidity,
severe vibration, or strong magnetic fields.
•
Condensation: When moving the lens from a cool to
a warm location or when the lens is used in a damp
environment, condensation may form inside the lens port,
on glass surfaces, and on internal or external electrical
connections. Operating the lenses while condensation
is present may result in damage to the equipment.
Condensation on the optical components may have a
visible effect on the output images. To reduce the risk of
condensation, find a warmer storage location. After moving
the lens from cool to warm environment, wait for some
time for the lens to warm up to the ambient temperature to
avoid condensation.
