Introduction
1.1 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Storage and editing of images requires a certain minimum
standard regarding computer capabilities. Large images require
a reasonably high-performance computer with sufcient memory,
advanced graphics capabilities and a recent operating system.
It is recommended that the computer has a USB 3 connector,
which will allow you to load images more quickly from the
camera.
A USB CFast card and SD card reader can also be used for
image transfer from the CFast and SD cards.

2.1 WARNINGS
Warning!
Do not place cables between camera and computer so that
there is a risk for people to trip and fall. This can cause
personal injury and/or damage to the equipment.
Warning!
If you use spare battery packs, make sure to use protective
caps on the contacts. The contacts can short-circuit and catch
re if not protected. This can cause personal injury and/or
damage to the equipment.
