The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust or sand, or where
water can come into contact with the camera.
■
Condensation (When the lens, the monitor, or viewfinder, is
fogged up)
●
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to sudden changes of
temperature or humidity. Avoid these conditions, which may make the lens,
monitor, or viewfinder dirty, cause mold, or damage the camera.
