Operation with all memory cards is not assured.
-
The camcorder is guaranteed to operate within the temperature range of –10 °C to +40 °C (14 °F to 104 °F) but the guaranteed operation temperature range may differ depending on each type of memory card. See the operating instruction of the memory card for details.
-
Movies recorded on the microSDXC memory cards cannot be imported to or played back on computers or AV devices not supporting the exFAT* file system by connecting the camcorder to these devices with the USB cable. Confirm in advance that the connecting equipment is supporting the exFAT system. If you connect an equipment not supporting the exFAT system and the format screen appears, do not perform the format. All the data recorded will be lost.
To eject the memory card
-
To ensure stable operation of the memory card, it is recommended to format the memory card with your camcorder before the first use. Formatting the memory card will erase all the data stored on it and the data will be irrecoverable. Save your important data on your PC, etc.
-
If [Failed to create a new Image Database File. It may be possible that there is not enough free space.] is displayed, format the memory card.
-
Confirm the direction of the memory card. If you forcibly insert the memory card in the wrong direction, the memory card, memory card slot, or image data may be damaged.
-
Do not insert any memory card other than those that fit into the memory card slot. If you do, it may cause a malfunction.
-
When inserting or ejecting the memory card, be careful so that the memory card does not pop out and drop.
