Hey guys, Thanks for your help my recent questions regarding video cards and my K7. I've gotten the cards and am experimenting with them.
So, I've been asked to video an event which is about 2 hours long. This will be in a dark theatre. I'll be able to experiment ahead of time, and position my camera where it is most convenient. I can see that I'm going to have to video in snippets about 7.5 minutes each. That's a little tedious, but not such a problem. Doing some tests in my living room, I saw that after several minutes of continuous video work, the camera starts warning about internal temperature. But after 30 minutes, it wasn't shutting down. So I guess the heat wasn't so bad... But here's my question. Any advice on settings I should use that might ease this process? I suspect that potential overheating might be an issue, so is there any setting that would minimize this? I'd assume that using the native sensitivity setting of 100 would be best? Any other suggestions or tricks? Look, I'm a scientific plant photographer, so this is out of my comfort zone!!!!
