Checking the Power Voltage and
Selecting the Fan Mode
Voltage check/Fan mode page
The first line allows you to check the battery
voltage, and the second line displays the
operating mode of the internal fans.
To select the fan mode
You can select the fan mode from the modes in
the following table.
Setting Operation of the fans
AUTO1 (default) The fans are controlled
automatically according to the
unit's internal temperature.
During recording, they are
controlled for quiet operation.
Normally use this mode.
AUTO2 Normally the fans are
controlled in the same way as
in MIN mode, but during
recording they are controlled
for quieter operation.
However, control for quieter
operation is limited to several
minutes or less.
Use this mode only when the
ambient temperature is normal
or lower.
MIN In this mode, the fans operate
quietly regardless of whether
the unit is recording. This
mode is preferable for 30
minutes or more of shooting
in quiet environments such as
concert halls.
Use this mode only when the
ambient temperature is normal
or lower.
MAX The fans rotate at maximum
speed to lower the unit's
internal temperature.
Notes
• If the internal temperature rises so high that the
TEMPERATURE CARE message is displayed, the
fan rotation speed will automatically increase to lower
the temperature.
