If reducing heat is a concern, users can use a cooling fan to set up a positive air flow around the
camera, taking into consideration the following precautions:
• Mount the camera on a heat sink, such as a camera mounting bracket, made out of a
heat-conductive material like aluminum.
• Make sure the flow of heat from the camera case to the bracket is not blocked by a non-
conductive material like plastic.
• Make sure the camera has enough open space around it to facilitate the free flow of air.
