Selecting the Card for Recording and Playback
Standard
Images will be recorded to the card selected with [ Record/play ].
Auto switch card
Same as with the [ Standard ] setting, but if the card becomes full,
the camera will automatically switch to the other card to record
images. When the card is automatically switched, a new folder will
be created.
Rec. separately
You can set the image-recording quality for each card (p.149). Each
image is recorded to both the CF and SD cards at the image-
recording quality you set. You can freely set the image-recording
quality, such as to
73
and
1
, or
c
and
41
.
Rec. to multiple
Each image is recorded to both the CF and SD cards simultaneously
at the same image size. You can also select RAW+JPEG.
If [ Rec. separately ] is set and different recording qualities are set for the
CF card and SD card, the maximum burst for continuous shooting will
decrease (p.151).
Even if [ Record func. ] is set to [ Rec. to multiple ], movies cannot be
recorded to both the CF card and SD card at the same time. If [ Rec.
separately ] or [ Rec. to multiple ] is set, the movie will be recorded to the
card which is set for [ Playback ].
[Rec. separately] and [Rec. to multiple]
The same file number is used for recording to both the CF card and SD
card.
The LCD panel will display the number of possible shots of the card
having the lower number.
If one of the cards becomes full, [ Card* full ] will be displayed and
shooting will be disabled. If this happens, either replace the card or set
[
Record func. ] to [ Standard ] or [ Auto switch card ], and select the card
with remaining capacity to continue shooting.
