Handling a memory card

We recommend that you power off before inserting or removing the memory card to avoid data loss.

We can not guarante that you can use memory cards formatted by other devices. When you format a card, be sure to format the memory card using this camcorder.

You must format newly-purchased memory cards, memory cards with data that your camcorder cannot recognise, and cards with data saved by other devices. Note that formatting erases all data on the memory card.

If you cannot use a memory card that has been used with another device, format it with your camcorder. Note that formatting erases all information on the memory card.

A memory card has a certain life span. If you cannot record new data, you have to purchase a new memory card.

Do not bend, drop, or subject the card to strong impacts.

Do not place foreign substances on the memory card terminals. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the terminals if required.

Do not paste anything other than the label provided with the card on the label pasting area of the card.

Do not use a damaged memory card.

Be careful to keep the memory card out of the reach of children, who might swallow it.

The camcorder supports SD and SDHC memory cards, giving you a wider choice of cards to choose from! The data storage speed may differ, depending on the manufacturer and production system.

SLC (single level cell) system: faster write speed enabled.

MLC (multi level cell) system: only lower write speed is supported.

For best results, we recommend using a memory card that supports a 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 every bit of the recorded video, the camcorder forcibly stores the video on the memory card and displays a warning:

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

If you are unavoidably using a low speed memory card, the resolution and quality of the recording may be lower than the value you set. ¬page 50

The higher the video resolution and quality, the more memory the camcorder uses.

• Samsung is not responsible for data loss due to misuse, including loss caused by any PC virus.

We recommend using a memory card case to avoid data loss that can be caused by moving the card or by static electricity.

30• After a period of use, the memory card may get warm. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
