The data storage speed may differ, according to the manufacturer and production system.

For best results, we recommend using a memory card that supports faster write speed.

Using a lower write speed memory card for recording video may cause difficulties when storing.

You may even lose your video data during the recording.

In an attempt to preserve any bit of the recorded video, the camcorder forcibly stores the movie on the memory card and displays a warning:

“Low speed card. Please record at lower resolution.”

If you are unavoidably using a low speed memory card, resolution and quality of the recording may be lower than the set value. pages 61~62 The higher the resolution and quality, the more memory will be used.
