    (*2) About motion picture recording / 6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO recording
    - Use a card with SD Speed Class with "Class 4" or higher when recording motion pictures in [AVCHD] or [MP4(under 28Mbps)].
    - Use a card with SD Speed Class with "UHS-I / UHS-II UHS Speed Class 3 (U3)" when recording motion pictures with [MP4] in [4K], [MOV], [VFR] or [6K PHOTO/4K PHOTO].
    (SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.)
