EJECT button to release the lock and
pull the button out.
2
Press the EJECT button again to eject
the card.
Note
Data integrity cannot be guaranteed if you power the
camcorder off or remove a memory card while the card
is being accessed. Doing so may corrupt all data recorded
on the card. Always make sure that the ACCESS lamp is
lit green or not lit before you power the camcorder off or
remove a memory card.
When SxS memory cards are loaded in both slot
A and slot B, you can press the SLOT SELECT
button to select the SxS memory card to use.
The camcorder switches automatically to the
other card if the selected card becomes full during
recording.
Note
The SLOT SELECT button is disabled during playback.
Even when pressed, it does not change the selected slot.
Button operations are enabled when a thumbnail screen
is displayed.
When you load an unformatted SxS memory card,
or load an SxS memory card that has been
formatted to other specifications, a message
“Cannot Use Media(A)/Unsupported File
System” appears in the viewfinder. In this case,
format the memory card in the following way.
Note
SxS memory cards must be formatted on an XDCAM
EX device. Cards in other formats cannot be used.
To format (initialize) a memory card
1
Select OPERATION >Format Media in
the setup menu
2
Select [Media(A)] (slot A) or [Media(B)]
(slot B).
3
Turn the MENU knob to select
[Execute], and then press the knob.
The confirmation message for formatting is
displayed on the viewfinder screen.
4
Turn the MENU knob to select
[Execute], and press the knob.
Execution of the format starts.
During execution of the format, a progress
indication appears (%), and the ACCESS lamp
lights in orange.
Recording and playback during format execution
Even during execution of a format, recording and
playback are possible using an SxS memory card
loaded into the other card slot.
If the format operation fails
A format operation may fail because the SxS
memory card is write protected, or because it is
not the type of card specified for use with this
camcorder.
Selecting the SxS Memory Card to
Use
Press the button once
to release the lock.
