iCautions when handling the cards

eThe cards are precision devices. Do not bend, drop, or subject them to strong forces or shocks.

eAvoid using or storing the cards in places with extremely high or low temperatures, subject to direct sunlight, in a completely closed vehicle, near air conditioners or heaters, or in humid or dusty locations.

eAvoid using or storing the cards in locations where strong static electrical charges or electrical noise can be easily generated.

eDo not allow the edges of the cards to become contaminated with foreign materials. Gently wipe away any contamination with a soft, dry cloth.

eDo not carry the cards in trouser pockets, as the cards may become damaged when you sit down or make other movements that may apply forces.

eBefore using a new card or a card that was used in other equipment, be sure to format it using the camera (see “FORMATTING A CARD” on page 122).

eWhen buying commercially available products, carefully read the instructions and warnings that come with the card.

iCaution concerning high temperatures

eDuring shooting, when the internal temperature of the camera becomes high, the \icon will appear on the LCD monitor. When the \icon appears, it is still possible to capture and play back images for a while. However, if the temperature rises further, it will become impossible to record (although playback will still be possible). In this case, discontinue shooting as soon as possible, and wait until the temperature falls before using the camera again.

eNote that particularly when shooting video clips, soon after the \icon appears, the remaining shooting time indication will appear, and when that figure becomes 0, further shooting is impossible.
