When shooting (recording/standby), you can
monitor the remaining capacity of the XQD
memory card in each slot using the slot A/B
media capacity indicators in the viewfinder
(page 13) .
The remaining recording time is calculated from
the remaining capacity of the media in each slot
and the current video format (recording bit rate),
and is displayed in units of minutes.
Note
A mark is displayed if the media is protected.
XQD memory card replacement timing
• When the total remaining recording time on the
two memory cards becomes less than 5 minutes,
the message “Media Near Full” appears, the
recording indicator starts flashing, and a beep
sound (headphone output) will warn you.
Replace with media that has free space.
• If you continue recording until the total
remaining recording time reaches zero, the
message changes to “Media Full” and recording
stops.
Note
Up to approximately 600 clips can be recorded on one
XQD memory card.
If the number of recorded clips reaches the limit, the
remaining recording time indicator becomes “0” and the
message “Media Full” is displayed.
You can save camera configuration data for the
camcorder on an SD card (available separately).
Saved data files can be imported from the SD
card.
