• In some cases, only parts of clips cannot be
restored. Playback of the restored clips becomes 
possible again.
• The following operation may restore an SxS
memory card for which the message “Could not 
Restore Some Clips” is repeatedly displayed 
each time you try the restoration process:
1
Copy necessary clips to another SxS memory 
card, using the copy function (page 102) of 
the camcorder or the XDCAM EX Clip 
Browsing Software (page 132).
2
Format the problem SxS memory card, using 
the format function of this camcorder.
3
Return the necessary clips to the SxS 
memory card by copy operation.
Recording/playback during restoration
You can perform recording or playback using the 
SxS memory card in the other card slot while 
restoration is in progress.
To update the managerial file
If clips cannot be played back, updating the 
managerial file on the card may improve the 
situation.
For this operation, use “Update Media” of “Clip” 
(page 128) of the OTHERS menu.
You can use an optional PHU-60K Professional 
Hard Disk Unit with this camcorder. The PHU-
60K incorporates a 60GB 1.8-inch hard disk, on 
which up to 200 minutes of HD video can be 
recorded in HQ mode.
Note
High-speed playback (page 96) may not be 
properly achieved with the PHU-60K.
Recording/playback can be made using the PHU-
60K in the same manner as with SxS memory 
cards by mounting the PHU-60K on the accessory 
shoe of the camcorder and connecting the PHU 
connection cable to an SxS memory card slot.
For the mounting method, refer to the instructions 
supplied with the PHU-60K.
Connecting the PHU connection cable
