NOTES
• Depending on the shooting conditions, the camcorder may pick up and record the operation sounds of the
lens (autofocus, aperture, image stabilization, etc.) or the cooling fan. In such case, using an external
microphone is recommended to reduce the effect.
• A single clip can be recorded continuously for up to 12 hours. After 12 hours, the camcorder will automatically
stop recording.

• You can use [w Other Functions] > [Delete Last Clip] (A 140) to delete the last clip recorded. However, you
cannot delete the last clip if double slot recording is on.
•If [w Other Functions] > [HDMI] > [Rec Command] is set to [On] and you use the HDMI OUT terminal to
connect the camcorder to a device compatible with HDMI recording commands, when you start or stop
recording with the camcorder, the other device will also start or stop recording.
• When the camcorder switches form recording on one SD card to another during relay recording, the video will
be recorded as two separate relay clips. With the supplied software, Data Import Utility, you can join relay
clips recorded on two SD cards and save them on a computer (A 123).
• The video (stream) file in a clip will be split approximately every 2 GB for clips with a long recording time.
Even in such case, playback will be continuous. With the supplied software, Data Import Utility, you can join
such split files into a single clip and save them on a computer (A 123).
