(Sample Illustration) Inserting and removing an SD™ Card
To prevent data corruption, it is recommended that you format the
SD™ Card in the camcorder before using.
All data will be erased if the SD™ Card is formatted. Make sure all
data is copied to your computer or other media before formatting the
SD™ Card.
When a memory card is inserted, photos and videos are saved onto
the card rather than the built-in memory.
Protecting data on an SD™ Card
Photos or videos cannot be recorded on an SD™ Card when the
card is locked (read only); however, photos and videos can be
viewed.
Make sure the lock is in the writable position before recording
photos and videos as shown below.
