Using the MC Protector/ND Filter
The MC protector (DMW-LMC55; optional) 
is a transparent filter which affects neither 
the colors nor the amount of light, so it can 
always be used to protect the camera’s 
lens.
The ND filter (DMW-LND55; optional) 
reduces the amount of light to 
approximately 1/8th (equal to adjusting the 
aperture value 3 increments) without 
affecting the color balance.
1Remove the lens cap.
2Attach the lens hood adaptor.

∫Optimal Use of the Camera
When carrying the camera, take care not 
to drop or cause impact to it.

equipment (such as a microwave oven, 
TV, video game equipment, etc.).
 If you use the camera on or near a TV, 
pictures and sounds may be disrupted 
due to electromagnetic wave radiation.
 Do not use the camera near a cell...
