Recording Video
This section explains the basics of recording clips*. For details on recording audio, refer to Recording Audio
(A 95).
Before making important recordings for the first time, make test recordings using the video configuration(s) you
plan to use to check that the camcorder operates correctly. Should the camcorder fail to operate correctly, refer
to Troubleshooting (A 204).
* “Clip” refers to a single movie unit recorded with a single recording operation. You can also include metadata with the clip.
Preparing to Record
1 Remove the lens cap and attach the lens hood
(
A 28).
2 Attach a charged battery pack to the camcorder
(
A 19, 20).
3Insert SD cards as necessary (
A 33, 34).
• Insert cards into both SD card slots to use relay
recording or double slot recording (A 36).
4 Slide down the lens barrier switch to OPEN to open
the lens barrier.
5Adjust the LCD screen (
A 29) and/or viewfinder

NOTES
• The camcorder can add a user memo (A 108) to the clips you record but you must prepare the user memo
file before you start recording. The user memo can be used to store film slate information such as the clip
name, camera operator and filming location.
