For S&Q Motion shooting

File formats and compatible memory cards are as follows.

In slow-motion recording, the recording bit rate is higher than usual. You may need a memory card that can be written at a higher speed.

Hint

  • When the recording bit-rate is 200 Mbps, you can also record using an SDXC card (U3/V30).

Note

  • For proxy recording, a faster memory card may be required.
  • CFexpress Type B memory cards cannot be used.
  • When an SDHC memory card is used to record movies over extended periods of time, the recorded movies are divided into files 4 GB in size.
  • When recording a movie on memory cards in both the Slot 1 and the Slot 2, insert two memory cards with the same file system. Movies cannot be recorded simultaneously when using a combination of the exFAT file system and FAT32 file system.

    SDHC memory card FAT32
  • Charge the battery pack sufficiently before attempting to recover the database files on the memory card.
