* When selecting the memory, you can check the total, used and approximate avail-
able recording time/number of photos (estimated based on the recording mode
(movies) or photo size/quality (photos) currently in use).
Initializing the Built-in Memory or Memory Card
Initialize memory cards when you use them with this camcorder for the
first time. You can also initialize a memory card or the built-in memory
to permanently delete all the recordings it contains.
At the time of purchase, the built-in memory comes pre-initialized and
contains music files for use as background music during playback.
