Notes on using your computer

“Memory Stick”

•“Memory Stick” operations on your camcorder cannot be assured if the “Memory Stick” has been formatted on your computer.

•Do not optimize the “Memory Stick” on a Windows machine. This will shorten the “Memory Stick” life.

•Do not compress the data on the “Memory Stick.” Compressed files cannot be played back on your camcorder.

Software

•Depending on your application software, the file size may increase when you open a still image file.

•When you load an image modified using a retouch software from your computer to the camcorder or when you directly modify the image on the camcorder, the image format will differ so a file error indicator may appear and you may be unable to open the file.

Communications with your computer

Communications between your camcorder and your computer may not recover after recovering from Suspend, Resume, or Sleep.
