Using Metadata
The camcorder automatically adds metadata to clips while they are being recorded. Metadata consists of the
user-defined user memo* and recording data, such as shutter speed, exposure and focus settings. You can use
the supplied Canon XF Utility software to check and search for specific metadata.
* The user memo contains the clip title (up to 100 characters), camera operator (up to 100 characters), location (up to 100
characters) and clip description (up to 1,000 characters).
Setting a User Memo
Before you can add a user memo, you must first install the supplied
Canon XF Utility software (0 128). Next, create the user memo and
then save it to an SD card. Once you insert the SD card in the camcorder
and select the user memo, it will be added to clips you record.
For details on using the supplied software, refer to the instruction manual
that is installed with the Canon XF Utility software (0 134).
1Use Canon XF Utility to save a user memo to an SD card.
• For details, refer to Managing User Memo Profiles in the Canon XF Utility Instruction Manual.
2 Insert the SD card into the SD card slot of the camcorder.

NOTES
• You must set the user memo before you start recording for it to be added to the clip. You cannot change the
user memo of a clip using the camcorder but you can do so with the Canon XF Utility software.
• You can also set a user-defined country code, organization code and user code for the metadata (0 150),
which is based on the UMID standard. However, the supplied Canon XF Utility software cannot display or
search for this information.
• After you set a user memo, do not remove the SD card while you are recording. If the SD card is removed, the
user memo will not be added to the clip.
