Using Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
Photos captured by a camera are often transformed to JPEG formats 
and stored in the memory according to the settings of the camera at the 
time of shooting. RAW files are not transformed to JPEG formats and 
are stored in the memory without any changes. With Adobe Photoshop 
Lightroom, you can calibrate exposures, White Balances, tones, 
contrasts, and colors of photos. You can also edit JPEG or TIFF files as 
well as RAW files. For more information, refer to the program guide.

Cleaning the camera
Camera lens and display
Use a brush to remove dust and wipe the lens gently with a soft cloth.  
If any dust remains, apply lens cleaning liquid to a piece of cleaning 
paper and wipe gently.
Image sensor
Depending on different shooting conditions, dust may appear in photos 
because the image sensor is exposed to the external environment. 
This problem is normal, and the exposure to dust occurs in everyday 
use of the camera. You can remove dust from the sensor by operating 
the sensor cleaning function. (p. 132) If dust remains after cleaning 
the sensor, contact a service center. Do not insert the blower into the 
mounting opening of the lens.
Camera body
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth.
Never use benzene, thinners or alcohol to clean the device. These soluti\
ons 
can damage the camera or cause it to malfunction.
