Handling a memory card
• We recommend that you power off before
inserting or removing the memory card to
avoid data loss.
• You have to format newly-purchased
memory cards, memory cards with data
that your camcorder cannot recognise or
with data saved by other devices. Note
that formatting erases all data on the
memory card and deleted data cannot be
recovered.
• A memory card has a certain life span.
If you cannot record new data, you have to
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 label
provided with the card on the label pasting
section.
• Be careful to keep the memory card out of
the reach of children, who might swallow it.
• Make sure to format the memory card
on this camcorder. If the memory card
had been formatted by a PC or other
device, using it on this camcorder
without formatting may fi nd trouble with
recording and/or playback. Samsung is
not responsible for damage of recorded
contents caused by such reasons.
Using the memory card adaptor
This camcorder uses micro SD/micro SDHC memory cards.
To use a micro SD/micro SDHC directly with a computer or a card reader
you must attach it to or insert it into an adaptor.
• Samsung is not responsible for data loss due to misuse.
• We recommend using a memory card case to avoid data loss caused by motion or static electricity.
• After a period of use, the memory card may get warm. This is normal and is not a malfunction.
The camcorder supports micro SD and
micro SDHC memory cards, giving you
a wider choice of cards!
The data storage speed may differ,
depending on the manufacturer and
production system.

•
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 diffi culties 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 video on the memory card and
displays a warning:
"Low speed card. Please record at a
lower resolution."
If you are unavoidably using a low speed
memory card, the resolution of the
recording may be lower than the value
you set.
The higher the resolution and quality, the
more memory the camcorder uses.
Record mode
SLC (Single Level Cell) system: faster
write speed enabled.
MLC (Multi Level Cell) system: only
lower write speed is supported.
