Recording Movies on a Memory Card
You can record Motion JPEG movies with the camcorder, from a tape in the camcorder or
from devices connected via the DV terminal or the AV terminal. The sound of a movie
recorded on a memory card will be monaural.
1. Press the start/stop button to begin recording.
2. Press the start/stop button to stop recording.
Do not turn off the camcorder, change the position of the TAPE/CARD switch,
disconnect the power source, open the memory card cover or remove the
memory card while the card access indicator is flashing. Doing so could result
in data damage.
When you are using a SD Memory Card, make sure that the protect switch is
set to allow recording.
Do not load/unload a cassette during recording.
When you use a SD Memory Card, we recommend using a Canon SD Memory
Card, or a SD Memory Card with a transfer rate of more than 2 MB/sec., right
after you have formatted it with this camcorder. With memory cards not
formatted with this camcorder, or when recording/erasing has been repeatedly
performed, the writing speed may be lower and recording may stop.
You can select the focusing point when recording a movie on the memory card.
Users of Windows XP: When you plan to connect the camcorder to a computer,
keep the length of one movie shorter than approx. 12 min. in 320 x 240 and 35
min. in 160 x 120.
Recording from a Tape in the Camcorder
1. Play back the tape.
2. Press the start/stop button when the scene you wish to record
appears.
3. Press the start/stop button to stop recording.
