tt Cautions when using SD memory cards

-On the camera, use SD memory cards that conform to the SD standard, SDHC standard, or the SDXC standard. When performing proxy recording, use SDHC memory cards, SDXC memory cards, or SD memory cards with the class description of class2 or higher.

-MMC (Multi Media Card) cannot be used. (Bear in mind that taking pictures may no longer be possible if you use them.)

-When using miniSD/microSD cards with the camera, always install the adaptor specially designed for miniSD/microSD cards. (The camera will not work properly if only the miniSD/microSD adaptor is installed. Make sure that the card has been inserted into the adaptor before use.)

-Use of Panasonic SD memory cards and miniSD/microSD cards is recommended. Be sure to format cards on the camera before use.

-Refer to our support desk at the following website for the latest information not included in these operating instructions. http://pro-av.panasonic.net/

-SDHC memory cards are a standard that was established in 2006 by the SD Association for large-capacity memory cards that exceed 2 GB.

-SDXC memory cards are a standard that was established in 2009 by the SD Association for large-capacity memory cards that exceed 32 GB.
