Use the PC card efficiently.
The PC card to be used with the MP-EG10W corresponds to film of a still camera or videotape of a camcorder, but it
is a more expensive medium when compared with film and videotape. If the PC card is used as a storage for video and
audio files, you will need a lot of PC cards, and this is not economical.
Instead, it is recommended that you transfer necessary files to the harddisk of your computer or other storage devices
and store them. After transferring files, edit the files and delete the files from the PC card for new recording.
* To store data in your computer, see “Connecting to your personal computer” on page 86.
Watch the PC card’s free memory area.
It is recommended that you occasionally check the free memory area of PC card, especially when you start to record.
If you notice that the free memory will be insufficient for scheduled recording, delete unnecessary files to increase the
free memory area.
* To check the free memory area: See “Checking free memory area of PC card” on page 72.
* To delete unnecessary files: See “Deleting the file” on page 54.
