    Can I check the remaining space of the recording media?

    • Answer
    • Yes, you can.

      Select [MENU] --> [Show others] --> [MEDIA INFO] (under the [MANAGE MEDIA] category).

      Information and the remaining recordable time by the recording mode of the medium selected in [MOVIE MEDIA SET] are displayed.

      Note:

      • Only the information for the medium selected on [MOVIE MEDIA SET] is displayed.
      • You can't check [MEDIA INFO] in the Photo mode. You cannot check the information of the medium selected in [PHOTO MEDIA SET], either.
      • Since there is an image database file area, the used space will not be 0MB even if you perform [MEDIA FORMAT].

      Yes, you can.

      Select [MENU] --> [Show others] --> [MEDIA INFO] (under the [MANAGE MEDIA] category).

      Information and the remaining recordable time by the recording mode of the medium are displayed.
