and HDD
Motion pictures and still pictures recorded with this unit can be copied between an SD card inserted in 
this unit and HDD.
≥When copying to the HDD, it cannot be copied if there is not enough remaining capacity on the HDD.
≥If the remaining capacity on a single SD card is not enough, you can copy to multiple SD cards 
following the instruction on the screen. 
In this case, the last scene copied to an SD card is automatically divided to fit the space on the SD 
card.
≥If you divide the scenes (l85), and copy by scene selection, it is possible to copy matching the

expressed as 1 GB=1,024k1,024k1,024=1,073,741,824 bytes. Therefore, the indicated value of the 
capacity appears to be smaller.
≥If there is not much remaining capacity in the SD card, a confirmation message asking to copy after 
deleting all data on the SD card is displayed. Be aware that deleted data cannot be restored.
