Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is dangerous for electronic devices, especially
when tools or hands get in contact with connectors and electronic components.
We recommend measures to avoid damage by ESD:
• Unpacking: Remove the camera from its anti-static packaging only when your
body is grounded.
• Workplace: Use a static-safe workplace with static-dissipative mat and air
ionization.
• Wrist strap: Wear a static-dissipative wrist strap to ground your body.
• Clothing: Wear ESD-protective clothing. Keep components away from your
body and clothing. Even if you are wearing a wrist strap, your body is
grounded but your clothes are not.
• Bare board and open housing cameras: use a special ESD protective housing.
