FORMATTING MEMORY CARDS
MAIN MENU > GENERAL SETTINGS > STORAGE
The camera is only able to read and write to storage media
that have been formatted correctly. New cards sometimes
have no formatting, or you might want to convert a card that
is currently using a format that the camera cannot read. In
either case, you must reformat both CFast cards and SD cards
in the sensor unit for H6D use.
There are two ways to format cards. Use either the format
button on the grip (quickest), or the sensor unit menu.
FORMAT BUTTON
Press the Format button (A) on the camera grip. It is purposely
recessed to avoid unintentional use, so use a ballpoint pen
or similar. It is also possible to click the button with a hard
press with the tip of your thumb. A pop up is displayed on the
sensor unit for conrmation.
