Preparations
During restoration, the in-progress message and
status bar (%) are displayed, and the ACCESS
lamp is lit in red.
When restoration is completed, the completion
message is displayed for three seconds.
If restoration fails
A write-protected SxS memory card or one on
which an error occurred cannot be restored. For
such a card, a warning message is displayed.
Release the write protection or replace the card,
as per the instructions in the message.
An SxS memory card on which an error
occurred may become usable again through
repeated formatting.
In some cases, only parts of clips cannot be
restored. Playback of the restored clips becomes
possible again.
The following operation may restore an SxS
memory card for which the message “Could not
Restore Some Clips” is repeatedly displayed
each time you try the restoration process:
1 Copy necessary clips to another SxS memory
card, using the copy function (page 59) of the
camcorder or the dedicated application
software (supplied) (page 91).
2 Format the problem SxS memory card, using
the format function of this camcorder.
3 Return the necessary clips to the SxS
memory card by copy operation.
Recording/playback during restoration
You can perform recording or playback using the
SxS memory card in the other card slot while
restoration is in progress.
Note
For restoration of media recorded with this unit, be sure
to use this unit. Media recorded with a device other than
this unit or with another unit of different version (even of
the same model) may not be restored using this unit.
You can use an optional PHU-220R Professional
Hard Disk Unit with this camcorder.
Notes
High-speed playback (page 13) may not be properly
achieved with a hard disk unit.
Slow Motion recording by the Slow & Quick Motion
recording function (page 41) cannot be made with a
hard disk unit.
The Hard Disk Unit does not support recording with
UDF.
Recording/playback can be made using the PHU-
220R in the same manner as with SxS memory
cards if you connect the PHU connection cable of
the PHU-220R to an SxS memory card slot of the
camcorder.
Mounting the hard disk unit on the
camcorder
You can attach a hard disk unit to the front
accessory shoe. By using the optional cold shoe
kit (consisting of an auxiliary shoe, four screws,
and a bottom plate) with the camcorder, you can
also mount the hard disk unit on the rear
accessory shoe (page 12) of the camcorder.
1 Place the auxiliary shoe on the rear
accessory shoe and secure it with the
four screws.
