  • How do I record on the first card??

    Posted by Bill Thomas on February 7, 2008 at 7:38 pm

    On my HPX500, I’ve used it a few times and have always formatted the cards (in-camera) after each use. After resetting the timecode, it usually starts recording new footage on card #1. But this time it started on card #3.

    Is there a reason why it doesn’t automatically start at card #1?

    Thanks for the help,

    Bill

    it’s something to do with the order they’re inserted…. or maybe it’s the phase of the moon. Regardless, use the “Slot Select” function. Whip it good.
