About moisture condensation . . .
•You may have observed that pouring a cold liquid into a
glass will cause drops of water to form on the glass’
outer surface. This same phenomenon occurs on the
head drum of a camcorder when it is moved from a cool
place to a warm place, after heating a cold room, under
extremely humid conditions or in a place directly
subjected to the cool air from an air conditioner.
•Moisture on the head drum can cause severe damage to
the video tape, and can lead to internal damage to the
camcorder itself.
