							4VQT4G74 (ENG)∫Lens Care≥This lens has a dust-proof and splash-proof 
construction. When using it, please be careful of 
the following. 
If the lens is not working properly, consult the 
dealer or your neares t Service Center.
– Please attach the lens to a dust-proof and  splash-proof digital camera.
– Make sure that no sand, dust, drops of water,  etc., gets on or inside the lens mount rubber, 
terminals, and inside the digital camera and lens 
when attaching or detaching the lens.
– This lens is not waterproof and cannot be used to  record underwater. For splash-proofing, the lens 
is constructed to resist the entry of water. If 
splashes of water etc. do adhere to the lens, wipe 
after use with a soft dry cloth.
≥ To improve the dust-proofing and splash-proofing 
of this lens, a lens mount rubber is used in the 
mounting portion. After changing the lens a 
number of times, you may find that the lens mount 
rubber has marked the mount portion of the digital 
camera body, which does not affect its 
performance. 
For information on changing the lens mount 
rubber, contact your near est Service Center. ≥
Do not press the lens with excessive force.
≥ When there is dirt (water, oil, and fingerprints, etc.) 
on the surface of the lens, the picture may be 
affected. Lightly wipe the surface of the lens with a 
soft, dry cloth before and after taking pictures.
≥ Do not place the lens mount 
facing downwards. Do not 
allow the lens contact points 
1  to become dirty.
∫About Condensation 
(Fogging of the Lens)≥Condensation occurs when there are differences 
in temperature and humidity as described below. 
Condensation can cause the lens to become dirty 
and lead to mold and malfunctioning, so exercise 
caution in the following situations:
– When the camera is brought indoors from outside  during cold weather
– When the camera is brought into an air-
conditioned car
– When cold air from an air conditioner is directly  blown onto the lens
– In humid places

≥Put the camera into a plastic bag to allow it to 
acclimatize to the surrounding temperature in 
order to prevent condensation. If condensation 
occurs, turn the power off and leave it for about 
two hours. Once the camera acclimatizes to the 
surrounding temperature the condensation will go 
away naturally.

same way as shown 
previously.• When taking pictures with 
the flash with the lens hood 
attached, the lower portion of 
the screen may turn dark (vignetting effect) and 
the control of the flash may be disabled because 
the photo flash may be obscured by the lens 
hood. We recommend detaching the lens hood.
• When using the AF assist lamp in the dark,  detach the lens hood.∫ Attaching Filters≥Vignetting may occur if using 2 or more 
MC protectors (optional: DMW-LMCH58), 
PL filters (optional: DMW-LPL58) or ND filters 
(optional: DMW-LND58), or if using thick 
protectors and/or filters.
≥ The filter may become impossible to remove if 
excessively tightened, so please refrain from 
tightening it too strongly.
≥ It is possible to attach the lens cap with the filter 
already attached.
≥ You cannot attach a conversion lens or adaptor to 
this lens. A filter may be used, but attaching any 
other element may cause damage to the lens.
