Warnings

Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time.

Even if the camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same
body part may cause skin redness or blistering due to low-temperature contact
burns. Using a tripod is recommended for people with circulation problems or
very sensitive skin, or when using the camera in very hot places.

“General Movie Shooting Cautions” are on pages 341-342.

If necessary, also read “General Live View Shooting Cautions” on
