Do not turn off the camcorder, change the position of the TAPE/CARD switch, disconnect the power source, open the memory card cover or remove the memory card while the card access indicator is flashing. Doing so could result in data damage.

When you are using a SD Memory Card, make sure that the protect switch is set to allow recording.

Do not load/unload a cassette during recording.

When you use a SD Memory Card, we recommend using a Canon SD Memory Card, or a SD Memory Card with a transfer rate of more than 2 MB/sec., right after you have formatted it with this camcorder. With memory cards not formatted with this camcorder, or when recording/erasing has been repeatedly performed, the writing speed may be lower and recording may stop.

You can select the focusing point when recording a movie on the memory card.

Users of Windows XP: When you plan to connect the camcorder to a computer, keep the length of one movie shorter than approx. 12 min. in 320 x 240 and 35 min. in 160 x 120.
