12. Lens care

• When the lens is not in use, set the tilt and shift amount

to “0.” The lens has many moving parts and can be easily

soiled by dust, dirt or water drip.

• Clean the lens surfaces with a blower brush. To remove

dirt and smudges, use a soft, clean cotton cloth or lens

tissue moistened with ethanol (alcohol) or lens cleaner.

Wipe in a circular motion from center to outer edge,

taking care not to leave traces or touch other parts of the

lens.

• Never use thinner or benzene to clean the lens as this

might damage it, result in a fire, or cause health

problems.

• To protect the front lens element, an NC filter is

recommended at all times. A lens hood also helps protect

the front of the lens.

• When storing the lens in its lens case, attach both front

and rear caps.

• When the lens will not be used for a long time, store it in

a cool, dry place to prevent mold. Also store the lens

away from direct sunlight or chemicals such as camphor

or naphthalene.

• Do not get water on the lens or drop it in water as this

will cause it to rust and malfunction.

• Reinforced plastic is used for certain parts of the lens. To

avoid damage, never leave the lens in an excessively hot

place.
