EYEPIECE DIOPTRIC CORRECTION LENSES

The SD15 has a built-in type “Diopter Adjuster” and its range is –3 ~ +1.5dpt, if you

still cannot see the viewfinder clearly, then please purchase a viewfinder diopter

adjustment eyepiece. These are series of seven optional accessory lenses, which

adjust the camera’s viewfinder to accommodate the vision requirements

(near-sightedness or far-sightedness) of different photographers. They attach to the

camera’s eyepiece frame. The dioptric correction values of these lenses range from

–4 to +3.

MAINTENANCE

 Do not use chemicals or other cleaning agents such as thinners or benzene for

cleaning the camera and lens. Use a clean, soft cloth and blower to clean the

camera and lens. Lens cleaners can be used for removing fingerprints.

 Do not lubricate the camera, lens or lens contacts.

 Use a blower to remove dust and dirt from the color LCD monitor. To remove

fingerprints or other stains from the LCD monitor, wipe the surface gently with a soft,

clean cloth.

Do not apply excessive force, as this could damage the LCD monitor.

 The Sigma SD15 camera contains a dust protector located inside the lens

mount. The dust protector is a very delicate device and care must be taken not

to scratch its surface. Use a blower to remove dirt and dust from the dust

protector. Do not use a blower brush, as the bristles could scratch the dust

protector surface. To avoid damage, do not apply pressure to the dust protector.

CLEANING THE IMAGE SENSOR

Although SD15 is equipped with a dust protector to prevent dust or dirt from

entering the camera, in rare circumstances, dust or dirt may adhere to the

image sensor, causing black spots to appear on images. If this occurs, it

may be necessary to clean the image sensor.

z The image sensor is extremely delicate and can easily be damaged. We

recommend that you contact an authorized Sigma Service Station to have the

sensor cleaned. We do not advise attempting the procedure yourself,

especially if you have no previous experience cleaning delicate optical

components.

WARNING!!

• The image sensor is a very important part of your camera. Please take all

necessary precautions to avoid damaging the sensor.

• Do not use an aerosol compressed air cleaner. Liquid may leak from the

cleaner and damage the image sensor or other electronics inside the camera.
