7 Frequently
asked questions
(FAQ)

•
on the camcorder (see ‘Get started’ >
‘Turn on’).
The built-in battery may be drained.
•
Charge the battery (see ‘Get started’ >
‘Charge the built-in battery’).
Why is [Memory full!] displayed when I try to
record?
Ensure that the Micro SD card has been
•
inserted correctly (see ‘Get started’ >
‘Load the Micro SD card’).
The memory is used up. Save your video/
•
pictures to a computer (see ‘Use more of
your camcorder’ > ‘Transfer video/pictures

camcorder or clear the memory.
How much memory is needed for 1 hour of
Full HD recording?
The CAM150 uses 4GB on average for
•
1 hour of Full HD video. For a more
complex video recording (e.g. with lots of
motions in the video, or a lot of panning),
the CAM150 will use more memory. This is
done to maintain the video quality, but will
increase the usage of memory.
Why do I have no access to folders on the
camcorder from my computer?
Ensure that the USB connection is correct.
