Memory cards
[Memory Card Error] / [Format this card?]
 • Save needed data on a computer or other device, and then use [Format] on the camera. (→28)
 • Try with a different card.
[Read Error] / [Write Error] / [Please check the card]
 • Check whether card has been inserted correctly (→26).
 • Turn off the camera and remove the card. Reinsert the card and turn the camera on again.
 • Try with a different card.
[Recording was cancelled due to the limitation of the writing speed of the card]
 • The speed class of a required card varies depending on [Rec Format] and [Rec Quality] of a motion 
picture. 4K photo recording requires a card that meets a particular speed class rating. Use a card 
that meets the rating. Be sure to use a card of the recommended speed class. For details, refer to 
“About motion picture/4K photo recording and speed class ratings” (→27).
 • If recording stops even when using a card of the recommended speed class (→27), the data writing 
speed has dropped. If this happens, we recommend backing up the data on the memory card and 
formatting it (→28). Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
[Memory Card Error] / [This memory card cannot be used]
 • Use a compatible card. (→27)
