A long clip can be recorded crossing over two
memory cards in slot A and B.
When you copy recorded clips to a hard disk,
etc., via computer, it is recommended to use the
dedicated application software, which you need
to download, to maintain the continuity of
recorded materials. For details, see "Software
Downloads" (page 174).
Note
If copying is done using Explorer (Windows) or
Finder (MAC), the continuity and relationships of
recorded materials may not be maintained.
Maximum duration of a clip
The maximum clip length is 24 hours for FAT
(MP4 or AVI) and 6 hours for UDF (MXF) and
exFAT (MXF).
If you exceed the maximum clip length, a new
clip will be automatically created. You can
check the new clip on the thumbnail screen.
