Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup: Charge the battery fully, insert a high-speed UHS-II SD card, and update to the latest firmware via the Sony website to ensure optimal autofocus performance.
Lens Compatibility: The camera utilizes the Sony E-mount system. While it is compatible with all FE full-frame lenses, lighter 'G' series or compact prime lenses are recommended to maintain the camera's portable intent.
Maintenance: Keep the sensor clean by using a professional blower and avoid changing lenses in dusty or windy environments.
Storage: Store the camera in a cool, dry place. If shooting in humid conditions, use silica gel packets in your camera bag to prevent moisture buildup within the internal components.
