NOTES
• 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.

Initializing an SD Card
The first time you use an SD card with this camcorder, initialize it first. You can also initialize an SD card 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 Open the [Initialize Media] submenu.
[w Other Functions] > [Initialize Media]
2 Select [*A] or [*B] and then press the joystick.
3 Select [Complete] (complete initialization) or [Quick] (quick
initialization) and then press the joystick.
4 Select [OK] and then press the joystick.
• If you are using the [Complete] initialization option, press the joystick twice to cancel the operation while it is
in progress. You can use the SD card but all data will be erased.
5 When the confirmation message appears, press the joystick.
• The SD card is initialized and all the data it contains is erased.
IMPORTANT
• Initializing an SD card will permanently erase all data, including custom picture files. Lost data cannot be
recovered. Make sure you save important recordings in advance.
• Depending on the SD card, the complete initialization may take up to a few minutes.
NOTES
• If you set an assignable button to [Initialize Media] (A 89), you can press the button to open the initialization
submenu.
