TO ENSURE LONG-TERM SATISFACTION
* Avoid touching the glass element surface. Use a photographic lens cloth or blower
to remove dust from the lens element surface. When not using the lens, always place
a lens cap on it for protection.
* Use a lens cleaning tissue or lint cloth with a drop of cleaning solution to remove
fingerprints or dirt on the glass lens surface with a rotary motion from the center to
the edge. Use a silicon cloth to clean your lens barrel only.
* Clean the lens barrel with a silicon cloth. Do not use benzene or paint thinner or
other organic cleansers.
* Mildew is an enemy of your lens. Clean the lens after shooting near water or in any
humid place. Store your lens in a clean, cool and dry place. When storing the lens in a
lens case, store it with commercially available drying agent such as silica gel, and
change the agent occasionally. If you find mildew on your lens, consult an authorized
repair shop or nearby photographic store.
* Do not touch the lens-camera mount contacts since dust and/or dirt stains may
cause a contact failure between the lens and camera.
* When using your equipment in an environment where the temperature changes
from one extreme to the other, make sure to put your equipment temporarily in a
case or plastic bag for a length of time in order to go through a gradual temperature
shift. This will reduce potential equipment trouble.
