Dual Recording and Relay Recording
Dual Recording and Relay Recording
The camcorder features two convenient recording methods that can be used when both card slots contain an
SD card: dual recording and relay recording.
Dual recording: This function records the same clip simultaneously to both SD cards, which is a convenient way
to make a backup copy of your recordings while you record.
Relay recording: This function allows you to continue recording on the other SD card without interruption when
the SD card you are using becomes full.
