 Safety Precautions
●●Do not look at the sun or a bright light source 
through the lens or camera.  Doing so could result in 
loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through the 
lens is especially hazardous. 
●● Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do not 
leave the lens under the sun without the lens cap 
attached.  This is to prevent the lens from concentrating 
the sun’s rays, which could cause a fire.
