6 Using the SD (Secure Digital) Card
• Using the SD card
Your camera comes with approximately 16MB of built-in flash memory
for storing pictures/video clips. You can expand the memory using a
commercially available SD card (up to 512MB). The camera senses
whether a memory card is inserted, and automatically saves pictures
accordingly. Note that you cannot save pictures to built-in flash memory
while a memory card is installed in the camera.
Memory Card Precautions
1. Use only an SD memory card with this camera. Proper operation is not
guaranteed when any other type of card is used.
2. Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause
data corruption or even loss. Always make sure that you always back up
important data on other media (MO disc, computer hard drive, etc.).
3. If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal
operation by reformatting it. However, we recommend that you always
take along more than one memory card whenever using the camera far
away from the home or office.
4. We recommend that you format a memory card before using it for the
first time after purchasing it, or whenever the card you are using seems
to be the cause of abnormal pictures. Remember to format a memory
card if it was used in another digital camera or other devices.
IMPORTANT!
• Make sure you turn off the camera before inserting or removing a memory card.
• Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting it. Never try to force a
memory card into the slot when you feel resistance.
• SD memory cards have a write protect switch, which you can use to protect
against accidental deletion of picture data. “Whenever you want to record,
format or delete item in the SD Card, you must disable write protection.”
