Corporate Nanny State or over-zealous product liability? And from Nikon of all companies. (A real shame..)
To wit: The Nikon AW110 handheld digital camera. User Manual avail at:
From the "For Your Safety" section beginning page 28:
"Twisting the camera strap around the neck may cause suffocation". Please note, the strap is only about 6 inches long.
"Never place the strap around the neck of an infant or child." Again, note that a 6-inch long strap would form a diameter of about 2 inches. If you can fit this over your baby's head, then I suggest your baby has bigger problems to worry about.
"Handle moving parts with care." "Be careful that your fingers or other objects are not pinched by the lens cover or any other moving parts. Note: The AW110 does not even have a lens cover. Nor, does it have any moving parts in the traditional sense of that term, unless you include the 0.05" travel of the shutter release!
My personal favorite: "The CD-ROM included with this device should not be played back on audio CD equipment. Playing CD-ROM's on an audio CD player could cause hearing loss or damage the equipment."
