Preparing the camera
• The Microdrive is a compact hard disk drive. Since the Microdrive is a rotating disk,
the Microdrive is not strong enough to resist vibration and shock compared to a
memory card.
Be sure not to transmit vibration or shock to the Microdrive during playback or
shooting.
• Note that the use of the Microdrive under 5°C (41°F) may bring performance
degradation.
Operating temperature range when using the Microdrive: 5 to 40°C (41 to 104°F)
• Note that the Microdrive cannot be used under low atmospheric pressure (above
3 000 meters above sea-level).
• Do not write on the label.
