Options [Canon]: The card's volume label will be "CANON" regardless of the clip file name settings.

Switching Between Card Slots If both slots contain a card, you can switch the card used for recording/playback as necessary. Press the SLOT SELECT button. • The access indicator of the selected SD card slot will illuminate in green. NOTES • You cannot use the SLOT SELECT button 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 44). 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.
