Understanding Camera Memory and Storage

Internal Memory

The digital camera is equipped with internal memory. If an SD card is not installed in the camera, all photos and video clips recorded by the camera will be stored in the internal memory. If an SD card is installed, photos and video clips are stored on the SD card.

Optional SD Memory Card

Photos, video clips, and other information recorded by the camera is stored on the SD card using the Design rule for Camera File system (DCF) protocol. The DCF protocol is designed to accommodate file and data exchange be- tween digital cameras and other devices.

DCF Protocol

The DCF protocol defines the format for image file data as well as the direc- tory structure for the memory card. Photos that are taken by a DCF camera can be viewed on DCF-compatible cameras from other manufacturers.

Using the Camera in PC-Cam Mode

When connected to a PC using the USB cable, your camera can function as a PC camera, enabling others to view you over the Internet using chat and messaging soft- ware such as MSN Messenger.

2.Put your camera on the top of your PC monitor or another flat surface.

3.Switch the mode dial to PC-Cam.
