Repairing SD Memory Cards
Never remove the SD Memory Card or disconnect
the battery or DC cable while the SD Memory
Card ACCESS lamp is flashing, as doing so may
damage the SD Memory Card. In the event the SD
Memory Card is removed while the SD Memory
Card access lamp is flashing, or the battery or
DC cable is disconnected during a recording or
recording finalization process, a repair verification
screen will appear the next time the power is
turned on to allow errors to be repaired.
Select YES to begin repairing. When repairing is
complete, “REPAIR FINISHED” will be displayed, and
the camera will switch to the recording paused screen.
Select NO to switch directly to the recording
paused screen without repairing.
Memory cards cannot be repaired with the camera
if NO is selected, but can still be repaired by using
the AVCCAM Restorer
*
contents repair software.
An SD Memory Card on which an error occurred
can be repaired by using either the camera
that was used for the shooting, or the AVCCAM
Restorer contents repair software.
A repair confirmation message may be displayed
after inserting an SD Memory Card which has no
error, but repair will not be performed even when
YES or NO is selected.
Repair may take up to 0 minutes or so depending
on the places where the errors occurred on the card.
Use a battery with an adequate charge or the AC adaptor.
If the repair operation has failed, “SYSTEM
ERROR TURN POWER OFF” will be displayed.
In this case, please use the AVCCAM Restorer
contents repair software.
Depending on the status of the data, it may not be
possible to restore all data completely. In this case,
it will no longer be possible to play back the clips
that were recorded before the SD Memory Card
was ejected or the power was turned off.
Clips with a total recording time of less than 10
seconds may not be able to be repaired.
Shot marks added during recording cannot be repaired.
