About
SDHC
Memory
Cards:
SDHC is the
new type of
SD
memory card with
capacities over 2 GB. Please note that
the specifications
of
SDHC memory
cards are different from those
of
regular
SD
memory cards and you will not be

with devices that do not support SDHC.
However, SDHC devices (including this
camcorder) are backward compatible
and support regular
SD
memory cards.
