Checking out the camera from the SF Cage
When you check out a camera from the Studio Foundation cage, it is provided to you in a protective
case along with two fully-charged AA NiMH rechargeable batteries, a 4GB SD memory card
(installed) and a USB cable for transferring images to a computer. If the batteries are fully changed
they provide sufficient capacity for several hours of non-continuous shooting and over 100
exposures. If the batteries run down on you, simply return to the cage for a battery replacement. If
you are far from the cage, you might have to use your own AA batteries batteries in order to keep
shooting. e camera should be kept in the case when not in use. Keep the camera away from water
and temperature extremes. In the event you choose to use your own SD memory card and/or
exchange the batteries, please make sure you return the camera with the same SD memory card and
rechargeable batteries that were installed in the camera at the time of check out, otherwise, you will
be charged for missing items.
