About SD Memory Cards
Notes on Using SD Cards
„
SD cards contain built-in nonvolatile semiconductor memory. Recorded
data is not generally corrupted (or erased) during normal use, but
misuse can result in data corruption (loss). Toshiba accepts no liability
whatsoever for any damages or loss arising from the corruption (loss) of
data stored on SD cards, regardless of the details or cause.
„
Because part of the memory on an SD card is used as the system area,
the actual available memory capacity is smaller than stated card
capacity.
„
Always format SD cards in the camera. Formatting an SD card on
another device (such as a PC) can cause problems that may prevent
data from being written to or read from the card.
„
You should always make backup copies of important data.
„ SD cards have a limited operating life. If you are no longer able to
record or erase images on an SD card that has been used for a long
period, you should purchase a new SD card.
„ Take care that young children do not accidentally swallow an SD card
as this could cause choking.
„
This camera conforms to SD standard version 1.01.
Write-protection
To prevent important data from being accidentally erased, you can lock
(write-protect) an SD card by moving the write-protect tab on the side of the
card to the LOCK position. To record, edit or erase data on the card, return
the tab to the unlocked position.
SDHC/SD Memory Cards (sold separately) are referred to
in this manual as “SD cards”.
