Does the camcorder feature dual recording where the same clip can be recorded to both memory cards in the memory card slots?

Solution

When you record, you can use dual recording to record simultaneously on memory cards so that you can use one of the movies as a backup.
NOTE
Dual recording is not available when:
  • The recording mode is set to 28 Mbps LPCM (59.94P), 28 Mbps (59.94P) or 35 Mbps (59.94P).
  • The camcorder is in [Cinema] mode.
