Initializing the Recording Media
The first time you use any recording media with this camcorder, initialize it first. You can also initialize a recording
media to permanently delete all the data it contains.
When initializing an SD card, you can select quick initialization, which clears the file allocation table but does not
physically erase the stored data, or complete initialization, which deletes all data completely.
1 Open the [Initialize Media] submenu.
[w Other Functions] > [Initialize Media]
2 Select [CF A], [CF B] or [SD Card] and then press SET.

progress. You can use the SD card but all data will be erased.

picture files. Lost data cannot be recovered. Make sure you save important recordings in advance.
• Depending on the SD card, the complete initialization may take up to a few minutes.

submenu.
