overheating

[Jim Bishop]

Hi - i've just put in V6.3.73 and am finding that my camera overheating. I have set the fan to adaptive preview quiet record as i have been shooting some interviews. So I am seeing the temp warning changing colour and when i cut the camera it takes what seems to be an age until the fan kicks in to bring the temp back to 65 degrees. Anyone else experienced this or can offer an expalanation/remedy? Thanks

What I have found to be of help for me is to set it like you did to "Adaptive-quiet record) but at a fairly lower temperature. 36-38. That way, it'll take a lot longer for the camera to reach a critical temperature spot...

I imagine the ambient temp in Nairobi is fairly high to begin with?

If you black shaded at 65˚ try setting your fan to 64˚. This might work.

Nairobi isn't actually too bad. I'm currently in Turkana which is fiercely hot, but i have shot here before without these issues. Hence my wondering outloud if the new firmware may be affecting my camera?!

Thanks Daniel - i'll give that a go with the lower temp

Thanks Rion - all suggestions gratefully received
