SD Cards Compatible for Use with the Camcorder

You can use commercially available Secure Digital (SD) cards with this to save clips, photos, custom picture files

and camera setting files. Initialize SD cards (A 42) when you use them with this camcorder for the first time.

Compatible SD Cards

As of October 2014, the recording function has been tested using memory cards made by Panasonic, Toshiba

and SanDisk. For details about SD cards tested for use with this camcorder, visit your local Canon Web site.

* SD Speed Class is a standard that indicates the minimum guaranteed data transfer of SD cards. To record MP4 clips with a bit

rate of 35 Mbps, we recommend using SD cards rated CLASS 6 or 10. If you plan to record using slow & fast recording, we

recommend using SD cards rated SD speed class 10.

IMPORTANT

• After repeatedly recording, deleting and editing clips (fragmented memory), it will take longer to write data on

the SD card and recording may stop. Save your recordings and initialize the SD card in the camcorder using

the [Complete] initialization option.

SDXC Cards

You can use SDXC cards with this camcorder. When using SDXC cards with other devices, such as digital

recorders, computers and card readers, make sure that the external device is compatible with SDXC cards.

For information on compatibility, contact the computer, operating system or card manufacturer.

IMPORTANT

• If you use an SDXC card with a computer OS that is not SDXC-compatible, you may be prompted to format

the card. In such case, cancel the operation to prevent data loss.

NOTES

• Proper operation cannot be guaranteed for all SD cards.
