When recording a video:
For best results, close any open applications before recording.
Record to your phone mass memory, if possible.
If recording videos to a memory card, for best performance, use a compatible,
fast, high-quality microSD card. The recommended microSD card class is 4 (32
Mbit/s (4 MB/s)) or higher.
Before first use, back up any important data on the card, and use the phone to
format the card, even if the card has previously been formatted or used in a Nokia
phone. Formatting deletes all data on the card.
If the performance of the memory card degrades over time, back up any
important data on the card, and use the phone to format the card.
