Turn the camera off frequently such as by using [Power Save Mode] ([Power Save
Mode]: 54).
• When [Continuous AF] is set to [MODE2], the battery drains faster. Battery
consumption can be reduced by setting to [MODE1] or [OFF]. ([Continuous AF]:

• When the following functions are being used, power is supplied from the battery of
this camera to the connected device, so the battery will be consumed faster:
– [USB-SSD]

The temperature of the camera rises more readily in the following circumstances:
when the ambient temperature is high, during continuous use such as when
recording high-definition video, outputting via HDMI, or using the streaming function.
When the temperature of the camera rises, [ ] appears blinking on the screen. If
you continue to use the camera, a message indicating that the camera cannot be
used is displayed on the screen and recording, HDMI output, and the streaming
function will be stopped. Wait for the camera to cool down and for the message
indicating that the camera can be used again. When the message indicating that it
can be used again is displayed, turn the camera off then on again.
* When recording with the camera mounted on a tripod, etc., you can set the
temperature at which recording is stopped to a higher temperature. ([Thermal
