Do not eject the P2 card or turn the power off
under the following circumstances, since doing
so may cause a malfunction in the card:
1) While the orange P2 card access lamp is
blinking after the card is inserted (and until it
stops blinking).
2) During recording, during the recording finish
process, or while the access lamp is blinking.
If a P2 card is ejected during formatting or while
its data is being accessed, “TURN POWER
OFF” appears in the viewfinder, and a warning is
indicated by the tally lamp. If this happens, turn
the power off and back on again.

During playback, a P2 card inserted into the
empty slot will not be recognized and the P2
card access lamp will not light. When playback is
completed, the P2 card recognition will begin.
You can use ACCESS LED on the OTHER

lamps so that they will always be off. In this case,

has passed after inserting the cards or stopping
operation before ejecting the cards.
If a P2 card is ejected while thumbnails are
displayed, the thumbnail screen is released.
