Using a Memory Card
E
The indication may not decrease even though a recording has been made, or
may decrease by 2 images at once.
All indicators are displayed in green when a memory card is played back.
Changing the Movie Size
You can choose between 352 × 288 pixels and 176 × 144 pixels.
Open the menu and select [CARD SET UP]. Select [MOVIE SIZE], set it to
[176×144] and close the menu.
Movies are recorded in the MPEG-4 (Moving Picture Experts Group 4) format.
Maximum recording time on a 8 MB memory card:
File Numbers
Images are automatically assigned file numbers (still images: 0001 to 9900, movies: 001
to 999) and stored in folders (still images: 101 to 998, movies: 001 to 999) containing
up to 100 images. (The sample images on the supplied memory card are saved in the
[100canon] folder.)
You can choose to use consecutive file numbers (CONTINUOUS) or to reset the file
number each time a different memory card is inserted (RESET). We recommend setting
the file numbers to CONTINUOUS.
CONTINUOUS
The camcorder memorizes the file number of the last image and assigns the
consecutive file number to the next image, even when a new memory card is inserted.
(If a higher file number already exists on the memory card, the consecutive number
will be assigned.) There will be no duplication of file numbers. This is useful for
organizing images on a computer.
RESET
The file number will be reset each time a new memory card is inserted (starting at
101-0101 with still images and 001-001 with movies) If the memory card already
contains image files, the consecutive file number will be assigned.
