Clean-up [CLEAN UP]

[CLEAN UP] recovers the data writing speed, which has been reduced, of the SD memory card.

In general, the data writing speed of the SD memory card reduces when recording and deletion are repeated. In this case, recording may stop in the middle while you are recording motion pictures. We recommend you to clean up the card using the camera before recording motion pictures.
