For details, ask at your local electrical shop or travel agent. + Do not use commercially available travel adapters as the charger may malfunction: Interchangeable lenses Choose a lens according to the scene and your creative intent. Use lenses designed exdlusively for the Micro Four Thirds system and bearing the M. ZUIKO label or the symbol shown at right. With an MICRO adapter, you can also use Four Thirds System and OM System lenses. © cautions + When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount on the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from getting inside the camera. + Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places. Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera to malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the lens.
