CF A/CF B error

- The CF card cannot be recognized or cannot be accessed. Check that the CF card is inserted correctly and not

malfunctioning.

CF A/CF B Management data is not supported and will be deleted

- This message may appear if you insert into the camcorder a CF card that was initialized by another Canon

professional camcorder. Check the contents of the CF card.

CF A/CF B Management file error Cannot record

- Cannot record because the camcorder cannot write to the file control information. This may occur if the files on the CF

card were accessed using another device. Save your clips (A 143) and initialize the CF card (A 45).
• During double slot recording, both “CF A” and “CF B” will appear in the message.

CF A/CF B Media full

- CF card A or CF card B is full so recording will not start. Switch to the CF card in the other CF card slot to record.

CF A/CF B Media is not supported

- CF cards that are less than 512 MB or not UDMA-compatible cannot be used with the camcorder. Use a

recommended CF card (A 43).

CF A/CF B Number of clips already at maximum

- The CF card selected for recording already contains the maximum number of clips (999 clips). Replace the CF card or

use the CF card in the other CF card slot.

- Because both CF cards reached the maximum number of clips, double slot recording is not available.

• During double slot recording, both “CF A” and “CF B” will appear in the message.

CF A/CF B Reached the recording limit for one clip. Recording was stopped.

- When recording a single clip for an extended period of time, the clip will be split into smaller video files every 2 GB (or

1 GB when recording in slow motion). This message will appear when the number of smaller video files reaches 99.

CF A/CF B Recording was stopped.

- The file control information is corrupted or there was an encoder error. Turn off the camcorder and back on again.

Then, remove the CF card being used and reinsert it. Alternatively, replace the CF card. If this does not solve the
problem, consult a Canon Service Center.
• Corrupted file control information cannot be recovered. CF cards or clips with corrupt file control information cannot

be read by the Canon XF Utility software or associated plugins.

CF A/CF B Using a card that supports UDMA mode 4 or higher is recommended

- The CF card’s UDMA mode is lower than UDMA4. We recommend using a CF card that with a UDMA mode of at least

UDMA4.

CF A

JCF B / CF BJCF A Switched

- This message appears when you use the SLOT SELECT button to switch the CF card slot in use or recording

continued from one CF card to the other.

CF A

JCF B / CF BJCF A Will switch in a moment

- The CF card is almost full so recording will continue on the other CF card in approximately 1 minute.

Change the battery pack

- The battery pack is exhausted. Replace or charge the battery pack.

% / $ Mark Error

- Could not add a % mark or $ mark. If the message appears in

mode, try adding the mark again. If that does

not work, add the mark in

mode. If the message appears in

mode, turn off the camcorder and then back

on. Then, try to add the mark again.

Check the data on CF A/CF B Initializing the card is also recommended

- The CF card cannot be used for any of the following reasons.

• A problem has occurred with the CF card.
• The camcorder cannot read the CF card’s data.
• The CF card was initialized using a computer.
• The CF card has been partitioned.

- Save your clips (A 143) and initialize the CF card (A 45).

Check the SD card

- The SD card cannot be accessed. Check that the SD card is inserted correctly and not malfunctioning.
- Due to an SD card error, photos cannot be taken or viewed. Remove and then reinsert the SD card or use a different

SD card.

Cover is open

- The CF card slot cover was open when the camcorder was switched to or turned on in

mode. Close the cover.
