Battery Status Indications
The following icons or messages indicate the battery
status on the LCD monitor (or viewfinder).
CF Card Handling Precautions
CF cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do
not bend, force, or subject them to shocks or
vibration.
Do not attempt to disassemble or alter a CF card.
Moving a CF card rapidly between temperature
extremes may cause condensation to form in the
card, leading to potential malfunctions. To avoid
condensation formation, place the CF card in a
sealed plastic bag before moving it into a different
temperature zone and allow it to adjust slowly to
the new temperature. If condensation forms on the
CF card, put it aside until the water droplets have
evaporated completely.
Place the CF card in the supplied case for storage.
Batteries are beginning to run low. Replace or
recharge the batteries if you wish to continue
using the camera.
Change the
batteries
Batteries are fully depleted and the camera
can no longer operate. You should replace the
batteries immediately.
Do not use or store CF cards in the following types
of locations.
- Locations subject to dust or sand
- Locations subject to high humidity and high
temperatures
Microdrives are a recording medium with a hard
disk. Their merits are a large capacity and a low
price per megabyte of capacity. However, they can
be more susceptible to vibrations and shocks than
CF cards, which use durable flash memories.
Please be careful, therefore, not to subject the
camera to vibrations or shocks when using a
microdrive, especially while recording or playing
back.
