    • You can use SDXC memory cards with this camcorder. When using memory cards with other devices, such as digital recorders, computers and card readers, make sure that the external device is compatible with SDXC cards. For information about the compatibility of SDXC cards, contact the computer, operating system or memory card manufacturer.
