If your clips are defective, they will have a yellow or red X in the upper right hand corner. You will see this if you place the cards in the camera and switch to thumbnail mode.
In Operation Menu, move the cursor to the defective clip/s and press the SET button to select. Scroll down to Repair Clip and press the SET button.
This only works in the camera.
