• If you cannot use a memory card that has
been used with another device, format it
with your camcorder. Note that formatting
erases all information on the memory card.
• A memory card has a certain life span.
If the card cannot record new data, you
must purchase a new memory card.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject the card to
strong impacts.
• Do not place foreign substances on the
memory card terminals. Use a soft dry
cloth to clean the terminals if required.
• Do not paste anything other than the label
provided with the card on label pasting
area of the card.
• Be careful to keep the memory card out of
the reach of children, who might swallow
it.
Notes on use
• Samsung is not responsible for data loss
due to misuse.
• We recommend using a memory card
case to avoid data loss that can be caused
by moving the card or by static electricity.
• After a period of use, the memory card
may get warm. This is normal and is not a
malfunction.
The camcorder supports SD and
SDHC memory cards, giving you a
wider choice of cards to choose from!
The data storage speed may differ, depending
on the manufacturer and production system.
• SLC (single level cell) system: faster write
speed enabled.
• MLC (multi level cell) system: only lower write
speed is supported.
For best results, we recommend using
a memory card that supports a faster
write speed.
Using a lower write speed memory
card for recording video may cause
difficulties when storing.
You may even lose your video data
during the recording.
In an attempt to preserve every bit of
the recorded video, the camcorder
forcibly stores the movie on the memory
card, and then displays a warning:
“Low speed card. Please record at
lower resolution.”
If you are unavoidably using a low
speed memory card, the resolution and
quality of the recording may be lower
than the value you set. pages 61~62
The higher the resolution and quality,
the more memory the camcorder uses.
