Press the SLOT SELECT button.

is indicated with a Ð mark next to CF card icon and in the rear panel, with a Î mark on top of the CF card
icon.

NOTES

• If both CF card slots contain a CF card and you open the cover of the selected

slot, the camcorder will automatically switch to the other slot.

• You cannot use the SLOT SELECT button to switch between CF card slots

while recording.

• When using an optional WFT-E6 Wireless File Transmitter, you can also switch

between CF card slots remotely by pressing [SLOT SELECT] on the Wi-Fi
Remote screen.

Selecting the CF Card Recording Method

The camcorder features two useful CF card recording methods, relay recording and double slot recording.

Relay recording: This allows you to continue recording on another CF card without interruption if the CF card you
are using becomes full. Relay recording is available from CF card slot A to CF card slot B, and vice versa.

Double slot recording: This records the same clip simultaneously to both CF cards, which is a convenient way to
make a backup copy of your recording while you record.

To use relay recording

By default, this function is activated. If it has been deactivated, follow the
procedure below to activate it.

1 Open the [Relay Rec] submenu.

[w Other Functions] > [Relay Rec]

To use double slot recording

1 Open the [Double Slot Rec] submenu.

[w Other Functions] > [Double Slot Rec]

NOTES

• When the bit rate is set to 50 Mbps (A 55), relay recording is not

available during slow motion recording.

• If a CF card becomes full during double slot recording, recording on both cards will stop. On the other hand, if

an error occurs with one of the cards, recording will continue on the other card.

• Double slot recording cannot be used with relay recording or slow & fast motion recording.
