Checking the remaining recording time While recording (or standing by to record), you can check the remaining space for the memory cards loaded in the card slots on the A/B slot media status/remaining space display of the LCD/ viewfinder screen (page 12). The remaining recording time is calculated from the remaining capacity of the media in each slot and the current video format (recording bit rate), and is displayed in units of minutes. Note • A icon appears if the memory card is writeprotected. Replacing a memory card • If the available time on two cards in total becomes less than 5 minutes, the warning message "Media Near Full" is displayed, the recording/tally lamp flashes, and a beep sound is output to the headphones to warn you. Replace with media that has free space. • If you continue recording until the total remaining time reaches zero, the message changes to "Media Full," and recording stops. Note • Up to approximately 600 clips can be recorded on one memory card. If the number of recorded clips reaches the limit, an indication that the maximum number of clips has been reached is displayed. Restoring a memory card If for any reason an error should occur in a memory card, the card must be restored before use.

Restoring a card Select Execute using the V/v/B/b button or SEL/SET dial, and press the SET button or SEL/SET dial. A message and progress status (%) are displayed while formatting is in progress, and the access lamp is lit red. When restoration ends, a completion message appears. If restoration fails • Write protected memory cards and cards on which memory errors have occurred cannot be restored. A warning message appears for such cards. Follow the instructions in the message and unprotect the card or replace it with another card. • Memory cards on which memory errors have occurred may become usable if they are reformatted. • In some cases, some clips can be restored while others cannot. The restored clips can be played normally. • If the message "Could not Restore Some Clips" keeps appearing after repeated attempts at restoration, it may be possible to restore the memory card with the following procedure. 1 Use the copy function (page 73) of the camcorder to copy the required clips to another memory card. 2 Format the unusable memory card on the camcorder. 3 Copy the required clips back to the newly formatted memory card. Notes • For restoration of media recorded with this camcorder, be sure to use this camcorder. Media recorded with a device other than this camcorder or with another camcorder of different version (even of the same model) may not be restored using this camcorder. • Clips with duration of less than 1 minute may not be restorable. • In 4K & HD (Sub) recording mode, only the 4K (QFHD) main clip is the target for restoration. 25
