SD / MMC Card Compatibility Information. Canon camera and camcorder models have been designed to be fully compatible with memory cards that adhere to their respective card standards. Below is a chart reflecting the standards supported by our current models. To ensure card compatibility with your camera or camcorder model, please contact the memory card manufacturer for further information and assistance in determining card compatibility.
To protect your recordings from accidental erasure, slide the tab on the cassette to the left. (This switch position is usually labeled SAVE or ERASE OFF.)
Initializing a Memory Card Initializing a memory card erases all data, including protected images. Images erased by initializing cannot be recovered. If you use a memory card other than the supplied one, format it with the camcorder.
Travel Restrictions for Lithium and Lithium Ion Batteries A battery's electrical connections (also called contacts or terminals,) must be protected from contact with metal or other batteries that may cause the battery to short-circuit. You can do this in several ways.
