Removing the lens

Press the lens release button all the way in and turn the

lens counterclockwise until it stops.

Notes

• If dust or debris gets inside the camera while you are changing the lens and

adheres to the surface of the image sensor (the part that converts the light source to

a digital signal), it may appear as dark spots on the image, depending on the

shooting environment. The camera vibrates slightly when it is turned off, due to

the anti-dust function, to prevent dust from adhering to the image sensor.

However, attach or remove the lens quickly somewhere away from dusty

locations.

• If foreign material attaches to the image sensor, dust it off using a blower.

• Do not leave the camera with the lens removed.

• When you want to use body caps or rear lens caps, please purchase ALC-B1EM

(Body cap) or ALC-R1EM (Rear lens cap) (sold separately).

• When you use a lens with a power zoom, set the power switch of the camera to

OFF and confirm that the lens is completely retracted before switching lenses. If

the lens has not retracted, do not press the lens in by force.

• When attaching the camera to a tripod, be sure not to touch the zooming/focusing

ring by mistake.
