camera operation
5.8 Environmental concerns
The Millennium is equipped with on-board
heaters in the faceplate and midrib for use in
cold conditions. It is advisable to plug in the
heater cable 30 minutes prior to use. A separate
battery should be used to power the heaters.
Note that batteries can lose up to 50% of their
capacity at 32ºF as compared to 72ºF. Magazine
and lens heater covers are abailable and should
be used in very cold temperatures.
The camera is sealed against normal dust and
moisture conditions. However, water boxes,
weather protectors, dust covers, spray deflec-
tors and other protective devices are available.
