• Do not eject the P2 card or turn the power off
under the following circumstances, since doing
so may cause a malfunction in the card:
1 While the orange P2 card access lamp is
blinking after the card is inserted (and until it
stops blinking).
2 During recording, during the recording finish
process, or while the access lamp is blinking.
• If a P2 card is ejected during formatting or while
its data is being accessed, “TURN POWER OFF”
appears in the viewfinder and LCD monitor, and
a warning is indicated by the tally lamp. If this
happens, turn the power off and back on again.
· When a card is ejected during formatting:
Format the card again.
· When a card is ejected while its data is being
accessed:
The clips may be thrown out of order. (Page 78)
Check the clips and repair them. “Restoring
clips” (Page 85)
• Immediately after pre-recording, a P2 card
inserted into an empty slot will not be immediately
recognized.
• During playback, a P2 card inserted into the
empty slot will not be recognized and the P2
card access lamp will not light. When playback is
completed, the P2 card recognition will begin.
• You can use ACCESS LED on the OTHER
FUNCTIONS screen to set the P2 card access
lamps so that they will always be off. In this case,
either turn OFF the power or wait until enough
time has passed after inserting the cards or
stopping the operation (such as recording or
playback) before ejecting the cards.
• When a P2 card is removed in PB/THUMBNAIL
mode or PC mode (USB HOST), the screen is
updated once it is closed.
However, the system returns to the thumbnail
screen no matter which screen was displayed
just prior to removing the card.
Furthermore, if a P2 card remains in the other
slot at this time, this card will be accessed so
please be careful when removing P2 cards
consecutively.
