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.
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 replaying.
