About the storage media

SELECTING A SUITABLE MEMORY CARD (NOT SUPPLIED) Compatible memory cards

You can use SD (Secure Digital) and SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) cards with this camcorder.

We recommend you use an SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) card.

This camcorder supports SD cards up to 2GB. We cannot guarantee normal operation with SD cards bigger than 2GB.

MMC (Multi Media Card) and MMC Plus are not supported.

Compatible memory card capacity: SD: 1GB ~ 2GB

SDHC: 4GB ~ 32GB

For video recording, use a memory card that supports faster write speeds (above SDHC Class 6 card).

SD/SDHC memory cards have a mechanical write-protection switch. Setting the switch prevents accidental erasure of files recorded on the card. To enable writing, move the switch up in the direction of the terminals. To set write protection, move the switch down.

SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) cards

An SDHC card is a higher version

(Ver. 2.00) of the SD card and supports capacities above 2GB.

SDHC cards cannot be used with current SD enabled host devices.

Common cautions for memory cards

Damaged data may not be recoverable. We recommend you make a back-up of important data separately on the hard disk of your PC.

Turning the power off or removing a memory card during an operation such as formatting, deleting, recording, and playback may cause data loss.

If you modify the name of a file or folder stored in the memory card with your PC, your camcorder may not recognise the modified file.
