3 Selecting the Card for Recording and Playback
Standard
Images will be recorded to the card selected with [ Record/play ].
Auto switch card
Same as with the [ Standard ] setting, but if the card becomes full,
the camera will automatically switch to the other card to record
images. When the card is automatically switched, a new folder will
be created.
Rec. separately
You can set the image-recording quality for each card (p.155). Each
image is recorded to both the CF and CFast cards at the image-
recording quality you set. You can freely set the image-recording
quality, such as to
3 and 1 , 5 and 61 , etc.
Rec. to multiple
Each image is recorded to both the CF and CFast cards
simultaneously at the same image size. You can also select
RAW+JPEG.
If [ Rec. separately ] is set and different image sizes are set for the CF
card and CFast card, the maximum burst for continuous shooting will
decrease (p.158).
Movies cannot be recorded simultaneously to the CF card and CFast
card. Movies will be recorded to the card set for [
Playback ].
[Rec. separately] and [Rec. to multiple]
The same file number is used for recording to both the CF card and
CFast card.
The viewfinder and top LCD panel will display the number of possible
shots of the card having the lower number.
If one of the cards becomes full, [ Card* full ] will be displayed and
shooting will be disabled. If this happens, either replace the card or set
[
Record func. ] to [ Standard ], and select the card with remaining
capacity to continue shooting.
Regarding the [ 5 1: Record func+card/folder sel. ] menu’s [ Folder ],
