  • Sony PMW 200 Delete All Clips

    Posted by Mark Thompson on February 4, 2014 at 3:03 pm

    Hi, don’t know if anyone has experiences like this before but … when I delete all clips, then look at the display the available space displayed on that card seems to show that the clips have not been deleted at all. Further if you show the thumbnails it seems to be possible to view them again.

    When you try to delete the deleted clips again from the Menu it will not let you – it is as if camera remembers that you have deleted them.
    It seems to be a bit like delete on windows, i.e. when you delete a file you only have to undelete it to bring it back.
    thanks

    Try using the camera to reformat the card instead of just deleting the clips. See if that solves it. I don’t have a PMW 200 but with my EX1R and EX3 when I delete clips they don’t show up again. I’m using Sony SxS Pro cards. You didn’t mention what cards you use.
