If the camera's internal | temperature | rises too high, | movie | shooting | automatically | stops to | protect | the | ||||||||
media. Because | Microdrives | tend | to | generate |
| heat | (for | mechanical | reasons), | long | periods | of | ||||
continuous movie | shooting may not | be | possible | when | the | ambient | temperature | is high. As | a general | |||||||
guide to shooting | times, | you | can shoot | movies | for | around | 20 minutes | at an ambient | temperature | of | ||||||
+30°C/+86°F and for around 30 minutes at +25°C/+77°F.
