Using Metadata
The camcorder automatically adds metadata to clips while they are being recorded. You can use the Canon XF
Utility software to check and search for specific metadata. You can also create and transfer a user memo
remotely using the Wi-Fi Remote application (A 49).
Metadata Components
1
User memo files need to be created using the software and saved on the SD card in advance.
2
Only when an optional GP-E1 GPS Receiver is attached to the camcorder. While recording, GPS information is recorded
automatically by the camcorder (A 103).
3
GPS information can only be added to clips already recorded.
4
Recording data is logged automatically by the camcorder.
Setting a User Memo Created with Canon XF Utility
Before you can add a user memo, you must first install the Canon XF Utility software (A 143). Next, create the
user memo and then save it to an SD card. Once you insert the SD card in the camcorder and select the user
memo, it will be added to clips you record.
For details on using the software, refer to the instruction manual that is installed with the Canon XF Utility
software (A 146).

the clip. You cannot change the user memo already added to a clip using
the camcorder but you can do so with the Canon XF Utility software.
