About high capacity CF cards
You can use CF cards with a capacity
of 128 GB or larger with this camcorder but such CF cards are
initialized using the exFAT file system.
- When using exFAT-formatted CF cards with other devices (digital
recorders, card readers, etc.), make sure that the external device is
compatible with exFAT. For more information on compatibility,
contact the computer, operating system or memory card
manufacturer.
- If you use exFAT-formatted CF cards with a computer OS that is not
exFAT-compatible, you may be prompted to format the CF card. In
such case,
cancel the operation to prevent data loss
.
NOTES
