Format and Maintain a Memory Card
Prepare a compatible card and keep recording reliable with a simple maintenance routine.
Use a suitable card
Choose a high-endurance memory card designed for continuous video recording. Confirm the supported capacity in your product manual.
Back up important clips
Formatting permanently removes all recordings. Save any important files to a phone or computer before continuing.
Format in the camera
Open the camera settings, choose the memory-card format option, and confirm. Keep the camera powered until formatting finishes.
Make it routine
Format the card periodically and replace it if the camera reports repeated write errors, stops recording, or creates damaged files.
