Ive heard a rumour that the old 340MB Microdrives have problems with the G1, but the new ones work well. How do I tell which one is which?
The “new” 340MB Microdrive has a part number of DSCM-10340 the “old” Microdrive has a part number of DMDM-10340. Some people also call the new Microdrive the “4500rpm version.” There’s only one problem with the “new” Microdrive it doesn’t exist! While IBM did say that such a drive could exist, and assigned it a part number, the DSCM-10340 has never actually been manufactured. The 1GB DSCM-11000, however, can be purchased from a variety of dealers. As for problems with the microdrive, it seems hit and miss for the 340MB (mine died), but the 1GB seems okay. The problem seems to be more from inconsistent IBM manufacturing than from Canon (but I’m no HD engineer, and IBM may have a very different opinion!). • Is it normal for the LCD to get so warm? Yes, and it apparently causes no harm. If you fold the LCD out, you may discover that the heat is actually coming from inside the camera itself probably the CCD. • My camera makes a faint clicking sound when moving from light to dark or back.
