Inserting/Removing An Sxs Memory Card - Sony PMW-EX30 Operating Instructions Manual

Label space
• Use this unit to format SxS memory cards
that will be used with this unit.
When memory cards are formatted on
another unit, the format is regarded as an
invalid format, making it necessary to
format the memory cards again.
However, note that the format and delete
functions of this unit do not completely
remove data from memory cards. Before
discarding or disposing of a memory
card, erase it using commercial data
erasure software, or physically destroy it.
Sony cannot be responsible for any
failure to erase data completely.
• Clip operations may not be possible
when the remaining capacity of the media
is low. In this case, use a computer to
delete unneeded files and try again.
• Open the memory card case completely
before storing a card in the case or
removing a card from the case.
For write protection
Setting the write-protect switch of the SxS
memory card to "WP" disables you to
record, edit or delete data.
