Repairing SD Memory Cards
Never remove the SD Memory Card or disconnect
the battery or DC cord while the SD Memory Card
access lamp is flashing, as doing so may damage
the SD Memory Card. In the event that the SD
Memory Card has been removed while the SD
Memory Card access lamp was flashing, or that
the battery or DC cord has been disconnected
during recording or the recording finalization
process, a repair verification screen will be
displayed the next time the power is switched on in
order to allow errors to be repaired.
Select YES to begin repairing. When repairing is
complete, “REPAIR FINISHED” will be displayed, and
the camera will switch to the recording paused screen.
Select NO to switch directly to the recording
paused screen without repairing.
Memory cards cannot be repaired with the camera
•
if NO is selected, but can still be repaired by using
the AVCCAM Restorer

contents repair software.
An SD Memory Card on which an error occurred
•
can be repaired by using either the camera
that was used for the shooting, or the AVCCAM
Restorer contents repair software.
A repair confirmation message may be displayed
•
after inserting an SD Memory Card which has no
error, but repair will not be performed even when
YES or NO is selected.
Repair may take up to 20 minutes or so depending
•
on the places where the errors occurred on the card.
Use a battery with an adequate charge or the AC adaptor.

If the repair operation has failed, “SYSTEM
•
ERROR TURN POWER OFF” will be displayed.
In this case, please use the AVCCAM Restorer

possible to restore all data completely. In this case,
it will no longer be possible to play back the clips
that were recorded before the power was turned off.
