    Oops, sorry I forgot to reply to your question!

    Basically, the issue seems to have just gone away. I fiddled with ice packs for the first paying shoot I did, then just forgot about it on the next. And it just hasn’t been a big problem. The overheating icon will sometimes show up towards the end of an interview, but I usually have to pause to change chips anyway, or for some other reason, and this gives the camera a chance to cool down a little

    The only time it seemed like it was going to be a problem, I swapped batteries and that seemed to give me the extra time I needed.

    I have to qualify all this by saying that I mainly shoot indoors. If I was outside, shooting in the tropics, my experience might be different.

    Sorry I don’t have any more hard info than that.

    Best,

    Harold
