@ You have observed that pouring a cold liquid into a
glass will cause drops of water to form on the glass's
outer surface. This same phenomenon
occurs on
the head drum of a VideoMovie when it is moved
from a cool place to a warm place, after heating a
cold room, under extremely humid conditions or in a
place directly subjected to the cool air from an air
conditioner.
@ Moisture on the head drum can cause severe
damage to the video tape, and can lead to internal
damage to the VideoMovie itself.
s If moisture condensation occurs on the head drum,
a condensation warning appears in the viewfinder
and the unit enters the Stop mode, unable to
function. In such a case, wait for a few hours until
the Indicator disappears.
