i If the original video clip is protected, even if you select “OVERWRITE FILE” in steps 8 and press the SET button, the original video clip will not be erased. If you want it to be erased, you will need to first remove the protection (page 103).

i If the “Card full” message appears, you will need to free some of the memory by deleting data that you do not need to keep.

CAUTION

Warning concerning the battery pack remaining charge

i During the editing of lengthy video clips, the time to process the large amount of data can become quite long. To avoid problems caused by the battery pack becoming depleted in the middle of video clip editing, before starting to edit be sure that a sufficiently charged battery pack is installed in the camera, or connect the AC adaptor.

i It is recommended that a computer be used to edit long video clips.
