Inserting and Removing an SD Card
1 Make sure the ACCESS indicator is off.
2 Slide the CARD OPEN switch in the direction of the
arrow and open the recording media slot cover.
3 Insert the SD card, with the label facing up, all the way
into the SD card slot until it clicks.
• To remove the SD card, push the SD card once to release
it. When the SD card springs out, pull it all the way out.
4 Close the recording media slot cover.
• Do not force the cover closed if the SD card is not
correctly inserted.
IMPORTANT
• Observe the following precautions while the ACCESS indicator is on or flashing in red. Failure to do so may
result in permanent data loss.
- Do not disconnect the power source or turn off the camcorder.
- Do not open the recording media slot cover.
• SD cards have front and back sides that are not interchangeable. Inserting an SD card facing the wrong
direction can cause a malfunction of the camcorder. Be sure to insert the SD card as described in the
procedure above.
NOTES
• SD cards have a physical switch to prevent writing on the card so as to avoid the accidental erasure of the
card’s content. To write-protect the SD card, set the switch to the LOCK position.
Initializing the Recording Media
The first time you use any recording media with this camcorder, initialize it first. You can also initialize a recording
media to permanently delete all the data it contains.
When initializing an SD card, you can select quick initialization, which clears the file allocation table but does not
physically erase the stored data, or complete initialization, which deletes all data completely.
1 Press the MENU button.
2 Open the [Initialize /8] submenu.
[3 Recording Setup] > [2] (in mode) or [1] (in mode) >
[Initialize /8]
3 Touch [ Memory Card] or [8 Memory Card] and then touch
[Initialize].
• If you are initializing a CFast card, skip to step 5.
