Disposal
When you delete movies or initialize the
built-in memory
(l:l:i[l) only) or
memory card, only the file allocation
table is altered and stored data is not
physically erased. Take the necessary
precautions when you dispose
of
the
camcorder or memory card, for
example by physically damaging it
to
prevent the leakage
of
private data.
1:1:11[1)
If giving the camcorder to
another person, initialize the built-in
memory using the [COMPL.INIT.]
setting
(OJ
33). Fill it up with
unimportant recordings, and then
initialize it again using the same
method. This makes recovering the
original recordings very difficult.
