II Notes on use
• Samsung is not responsible for data loss
due to misuse.
• We recommend using a memory card
case to avoid losing data from moving and
static electricity.
• After a period of use, the memory card
may get warm. This is normal and is not a
malfunction.
The data storage speed may differ,
according to the manufacturer and
production system.
• SLC (single level cell) system: faster
write speed enabled.
• MLC (multi level cell) system: only
lower write speed is supported.
For best results, we recommend using
a memory card that supports faster
write speed.
Using a lower write speed memory
card for recording video may cause
difficulties when storing.
You may even lose your video data
during the recording.
In an attempt to preserve any bit of the
recorded video, the camcorder forcibly
stores the movie on the memory card
and displays a warning:
"Low speed card. Please record a
lower resolution."
If you are unavoidably using a low
speed memory card, resolution and
quality of the recording may be lower
than the set value. -pages 47-48
The higher the resolution and quality,
the more memory will be used.
