The specification of the maximum number of frames that can be recorded in a single folder has been changed from 9,999 to 999 frames.
* As announced on Feb.2, this specification change is to address the following issues that may be observed when accessing SDXC memory cards with more than 4,000 files in a single folder with a macOS computer.

(1) When accessing files recorded on an SDXC card with a built-in or external card reader on a macOS computer, some of the files may not be displayed.
(2) If the memory card is not ejected correctly from a macOS computer, there is a likelihood that data may be lost when you load the card again with a built-in or external card reader of the macOS computer.
* If the proper ejection procedures are followed, no data will be lost, but (1) may occur.

* Please be aware that the above specifications will be applied to all future firmware updates. Thank you for your understandings.
