. Data Error Precautions
Your digital camera is manufactured using precision digital components. Any of the
following creates the risk of corruption of data in camera memory.
– Removing the memory card while the camera is performing some operation
– Removing the memory card while the operation lamp is flashing green after turning
off the camera
– Disconnecting the USB cable while communication is in progress
– Other abnormal operations
Any of the above conditions can cause an error message to appear on the monitor
screen (page 104). Perform the action indicated by the message that appears.
. Operating Environment
• Operating Temperature Requirements: –10 to 40°C (14 to 104°F)
• Operating Humidity: 10 to 85% (non condensation)
• Do not place the camera in any of the following locations.
– In an area exposed to direct sunlight, or large amounts of moisture, dust, or sand
– Near heating or cooling devices, or in other areas subjected to extreme changes
in temperature or humidity
– Inside of a motor vehicle on a hot day, or in an area subjected to strong vibration
. Condensation
Sudden and extreme temperature changes, such as when the camera is moved from
the outdoors on a cold winter day into a warm room, can cause water droplets called
“condensation” to form on the interior and the exterior of the camera, which creates
the risk of malfunction. To prevent condensation from forming seal the camera in a
plastic bag before changing locations. Then leave the bag sealed to allow the air
inside to naturally change to the same temperature as the air in the new location.
After that, remove the camera from the bag for a few hours.
