- If the camera temperature becomes elevated, a temperature warning (K) and count-down timer will be displayed. When the timer reaches zero, the shooting display will turn off.
- The temperature at which the count-down timer starts can be selected from [Standard] and [High] using [Auto temperature cutout] in the setup menu.
- The timer turns red when the thirty second mark is reached. In some cases, the timer may be displayed immediately after the camera is turned on.
A memory card high-temperature warning (X) or high-temperature warning (K) may appear in the shooting display if the camera’s internal temperature rises or memory cards become hot.
- When the camera displays a memory card high-temperature warning (X), wait for the camera to cool and the warning to clear before removing the memory cards. Attempting to remove the memory cards immediately may cause burns or cause the cards to be dropped and damaged.
- If a memory card high-temperature warning (X) or high-temperature warning (K) is displayed, not only the memory cards, but the camera body and batteries may also be hot.
If no memory card is inserted, a “no memory card” indicator will appear in the shooting display and [–E–] will appear in both the control panel and the shooting display.
