œEven with cards of the same capacity, the amount of data that can actually be stored may differ depending on the card brand, etc.

œThe continuous shooting time for each video clip will differ depending, for example, on

the card capacity, environmental conditions (temperature and shooting conditions, etc.). Example: Using a Microdrive at an ambient temperature of 25°C, resolution 2, the

continuous recording time will be about 10 minutes, due to the rising internal

temperature. If the camera is used when the internal temperature is elevated, it is more likely for the Sicon (warning indicator for elevated temperature) to

appear, and the usable time of the camera to become shorter. (See “Cautions concerning high temperatures” on page 24.)

Cautions when using the Microdrive

œWhen using the Microdrive continuously, the card will become very hot. Be careful when touching the card for removal, etc.

œWhen using the Microdrive, it will take a few seconds after the digital camera is turned on before the card can be used. This time will increase when more data is stored on the card.

œIt will take a great deal of time to download large amounts of data from the Microdrive to your computer.

œMicrodrive cards require more power than CompactFlash cards. Therefore the possible battery pack operation time (see page 197) when using the Microdrive will be much less than that when using a CompactFlash card.

œMicrodrive cards are easily damaged by vibrations. Be sure to read the cautions supplied with the Microdrive.
