| I own one Olympus Stylus Tough 6020 for more than a year, sometimes I forget and stay swimming more than one hour with it. The lense became wet and foggy . |
---|
| |
---|
| I have to leave the battery compartment open (without battery an memory card) for at least 24 hours to the fog on lenses decrease. |
---|
| |
---|
| It is a slow camera. From off to turn on and take the first picture it takes about 10seconds. To save in a class 10 SD memory card it tooks about 3 seconds (5 M pixels ) . |

+ | How can I maintain the waterproof capability of the camera? |
---|
+ | The camera loses its waterproof capability if the battery/card compartment cover or the connector cover is open. Before using the camera, make sure that all the covers are closed firmly so that each lock makes a clicking sound. Do not open the battery compartment cover or the connector cover with wet hands, while underwater, or in a damp or dusty environment (e.g. the beach). |
---|
+ | In addition, take the following care precautions when using your camera: |
---|
+ | Follow all recommended care and maintenance instructions in the product manual. |
---|
+ | After using the camera in an environment where it may be exposed to dirt, dust or sand, wash the camera using the following method: |
---|
+ | Fill a bucket with fresh water, immerse the camera in the bucket with the lens surface downward and shake the camera thoroughly. |
---|
+ | Press the power button several times in the water and close/open the lens cover repeatedly. |
---|
+ | Shake the camera further with the lens cover opened. |
---|
+ | Let the camera air dry in the shade with good ventilation. |
---|
+ | Do not leave the camera in water for a prolonged period. Doing so can damage the camera's appearance and/or deteriorate water resistance. |
---|
+ | Do not pour running water over the camera directly from a water faucet. Doing so can deteriorate the camera's water resistance. |
---|
+ | Do not use chemicals for cleaning, rust prevention, anti-fogging, repair, etc. Doing so can deteriorate the camera's water resistance. |
---|
+ | Do not leave the camera in an environment at high temperature (104° F / 40° C or greater) or very low temperature (14° F / -10° C or lower). Doing so may break down water resistance. |
---|
+ | Do not apply excessive force to or attempt to peel off the rubber backing of the battery compartment cover or the connector cover. |
---|
+ | If the rubber backing becomes worn or damaged, contact the nearest Olympus service center. (A charge will be assessed for replacement of parts.) |
---|
+ | Olympus recommends replacing the waterproof packing and seals annually. |
