TRANSFERING VIA COMPUTER
To transfer footage directly from the internal SSD to a computer
via USB3, power down the camera and connect the USB3
cable to the back of the camera. Wait for the drive to show up
on your computer as an external drive.
Warning: The rst time you connect your camera to a computer,
it may take up to 10 minutes for the computer to recognize and
pair with the camera. This is normal. Unplugging the camera
before it has properly connected could result in your computer
crashing.
Once the drive has mounted, you will be able to access your
camera’s internal drive like any external hard drive.
DISPLAYS AND MENUS: DATA TRANSFER 22
On PC: Most Windows users will need an additional program
to access the footage from your camera, called an HFS reader.
The HFS reader enables you to read the type of drive installed
in the camera, which works natively with Mac computers.
For Windows users we recommend the free HFS Explorer by
Catacombae. Instructions and download can be found online:
http://www.catacombae.org/hfsx.html
When your camera is powered off and plugged in via USB3,
HFS Explorer “D16SSD” will appear under ‘My Computer’.
Drag and drop the folders inside to your preferred destination.
Warning: Do not delete footage from the camera via Windows
Explorer or Mac Finder. This could damage the write structure
of your SSD. Always delete footage by formatting your drive
using the FORMAT SSD option in the camera’s DATA menu.
TRANSFERRING WITHOUT SHUTTING DOWN
If you do not wish to shut down the camera to copy footage, for
example if you are on set and simply need to check playback
of a take via LightPost (See “playback” on Page 35) you may
transfer to a Mac computer while still powered on. Connect the
USB3 cable to the back of the camera. Navigate to the DATA
TSFR option and select to transfer your footage vial USB3.
Wait for the drive to show up on your computer.
Note: This option will not work on Windows computers.
