Switching Between the CF Card Slots

The camcorder features two CF card slots, CFj (CF card slot A) and
CFl (CF card slot B). If both slots contain a CF card, you can switch
between them as necessary. In addition, if the CF card you are using
becomes full while recording, the recording will continue uninterrupted on
the other CF card (relay recording). Relay recording is available from CF
card slot A to CF card slot B, and vice versa.
Operating modes:
Press the SLOT SELECT button.
• The access indicator of the selected CF card slot will illuminate in
green.
