Shooting
DV mode
•
Use a memory card of SD speed class 6 or above when recording with DV mode. Recording cannot be
performed with a memory card of lower than SD speed class 6.
•
Control space is included in the displayed capacity, and available recording capacity will be smaller than
that.
•
Continuous recording time is a maximum of 12 hours (when using the AC adaptor).
•
The recording time of a memory card may shorten when record and delete are repeated often over and
over. In that case, format the memory card with the camera. When a memory card is formatted, all data
recorded on the memory card is erased and cannot be restored. Save important data to your computer.
•
Partition of clips recorded on a memory card
When an SDHC memory card of 8 GB or above is used, if the recording space of a single clip exceeds
4 GB, it is automatically saved as a separate clip. Saved data can be manipulated as a single clip during
thumbnail operation of the camera. When handled with nonlinear editing software or a computer, clips
are handled as the separate clips.
