Recording Motion JPEG Movies on a
Memory Card
You can record Motion JPEG movies with the camcorder, from a tape in the camcorder or
from devices connected via the DV terminal or the AV terminal. The sound of a movie
recorded on a memory card will be monaural.
1. Press the start/stop button to begin recording.
With SD Memory Cards up to 512 MB, you can record until
“CARD FULL” appears (approx. 33 minutes in 320 x 240 with a
512 MB SD Memory Card). With MultiMediaCards, the recording
time is limited to 10 sec. in 320 x 240 pixels and 30 sec. in 160 x
120 pixels.
2. Press the start/stop button to stop recording.
Do not turn off the camcorder, change the position of the TAPE/CARD switch,
disconnect the power source, open the memory card cover or remove the
memory card while the card access indicator is flashing. Doing so could result
in data damage.
When you are using a SD Memory Card, make sure that the protect switch is
set to allow recording.
Do not load/unload a cassette during recording.
We recommend using a Canon SD Memory Card, or a SD Memory Card with a
transfer rate of more than 2 MB/sec., right after you have formatted it with this
camcorder. With memory cards not formatted with this camcorder, or when
recording/erasing has been repeatedly performed, the writing speed may be
lower and recording may stop.
You can select the focusing point when recording a movie on the memory card.
Users of Windows XP: When you plan to connect the camcorder to a computer
using a USB cable, keep the length of one movie shorter than approx. 12 min.
in 320 x 240 and 35 min. in 160 x 120.
The recording time varies according to the movie size, the recoding condition
and the subjects.
