capacitor can be charged and serve to supply power when the
externalDC12/24Vsupplyiscutoff.Movieleswillnotbedamaged
if the power supply is suddenly cut off.
Option 2: Supply DC 5V through the micro-USB port. This power
supply option is designed mainly for portability and allows the
camera to be used as a handheld camcorder.
