Restoring Memory Cards
If for any reason an error should occur in a memory card, the card must be restored before use.
When you load a memory card that needs to be restored, a message appears in the camera image panel asking whether you want to restore it.
To restore a card
Select [Execute] using the arrow buttons in the GUI control panel and press the [Set] button.
A message and progress status (%) are displayed while formatting is in progress, and the access indicator is lit red.
When restoration ends, a completion message appears.
If restoration fails
- Memory cards on which memory errors have occurred cannot be restored. A warning message is displayed. Follow the instructions to replace the memory card.
- Memory cards on which memory errors have occurred may become usable if they are reformatted.
- In some cases, some clips can be restored while others cannot. The restored clips can be played normally.
Note
- For restoration of media recorded with this unit, be sure to use this unit.
- Media recorded with a device other than this unit or with another unit of different version (even of the same model) may not be restored using this unit.
- Clips shorter than 2 seconds cannot be restored.
