Preparing Recording Media
4 Select [OK] and then press SET.
• If you are using the [Complete] initialization option, press SET to cancel the operation while it is in progress.
You can use the SD card but all data will be erased.
5 When the confirmation message appears, press SET.
• The SD card is initialized and all the data it contains is erased.
IMPORTANT
• Initializing the recording media will permanently erase all data, including clips with an e mark, protected
photos, and custom picture information. Lost data cannot be recovered. Make sure you save important
recordings in advance.
• Depending on the SD card, the complete initialization may take up to a few minutes.
NOTES
• While recording on a CF card, you can initialize another CF card in the other CF card slot.
Switching Between the CF Card Slots
The camcorder features two CF card slots, CF card slot A (CFj) and CF
card slot B (CFl). If both slots contain a CF card, you can switch between
them as necessary.
Press the SLOT SELECT button.
• The access indicator of the selected CF card slot will illuminate in green.
NOTES
• If both CF card slots contain a CF card and you open the cover of the
selected slot, the camcorder will automatically switch to the other slot.
• You cannot use the SLOT SELECT button to switch between CF card
slots while recording.
Selecting the CF Card Recording Method
The camcorder features two useful CF card recording methods, relay recording and double slot recording.
Relay recording: This allows you to continue recording on another CF card without interruption if the CF card you
are using becomes full. Relay recording is available from CF card slot A to CF card slot B, and vice versa.
Double slot recording: This records the same clip simultaneously to both CF cards, which is a convenient way to
make a backup copy of your recording while you record.
