Solution

You can activate the relay recording so if the built-in memory becomes full while recording movies, the recording will continue uninterrupted on the memory card.

Insert a memory card that contains no video recordings into the card slot of the memory card you want to use for relay recording.

When the [Recording standard] is set to [ ](Story Creator) or [ ](MP4), this setting cannot be made. Please make the setting in either [ ](AVCHD).
When the [Camera Mode] is set to [ ](Auto), this setting cannot be made. Please make the setting in either [ ](Manual) or [ ](Cinema).
