Preparing Recording Media NOTES • If you set an assignable button to [Initialize Media] (A 121), you can press the button to open the [Initialize Media] submenu. 36 Setting a Card's Volume Label You can set the volume label for CFexpress cards and SDXC cards, when recording RAW/XF-AVC clips, in order to make it easier to identify and organize them later. 1 Select > [Æ Recording/Media Setup] > [Volume Label] > Desired option. 2 Initialize the card (A 35). 3 If necessary, set the RAW/XF-AVC clip file name's metadata elements (A 40). 4 Record clips on the card. • The card's volume label changes when the first RAW/XF-AVC clip is recorded on a just initialized card. Options [Canon]: The card's volume label will be "CANON" regardless of the clip file name settings. [Canon + Metadata]: The card's volume label will be "CANON", plus the camera index number and the reel number (A 40). Switching Between Card Slots If both slots contain a card, you can switch the card used for recording/playback as necessary. 1 Assign the [Slot Selection] function to an assignable button (A 121). 2 Press the assigned button during record standby mode (STBY) or on the index screen. NOTES • You can also use the > [ÆRecording/Media Setup] > [Main Recording Destination] setting. • You cannot use the button assigned to [Slot Selection] to switch between card slots while recording or playing back. • You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote (A 179). Checking the Remaining Recording Time on a Card The display on the upper left of the screen shows the card icons and the remaining recording time* (in minutes) on each card (A 50). On the [Æ Recording/Media Setup] status screen (A 203), you can check the total space, used space and approximate remaining recording time* of each card. The approximate remaining number of photos (SD card B only) and speed class will be displayed as well. * Remaining recording times are approximate and calculated based on the current video configuration used.
