Cautionary notes on connecting the camcorder to a computer
When the camcorder is connected to a computer:
- Do not remove the memory card.
- Do not change or delete any of the memory card’s folders or files directly from the computer as this may result in permanent data loss. When saving recordings on a computer, we recommend using ImageBrowser EX.
Observe the following precautions while the ACCESS indicator is on or flashing. Failing to do so may result in permanent data loss.
- Do not remove the memory card.
- Do not disconnect the USB cable.
- Do not turn off the camcorder or the computer.
- Do not press the <
> button.
- Depending on the computer, the software may not work correctly or you may not be able to play back movies.
-Long scenes, whose video data exceeds 4 GB, will be recognized as multiple files on other devices.
- If you wish to use the recordings on your computer, make copies of them first. Use the copied files, retaining the originals.
