■ Using an SD Memory Card

Also, see SD Memory Card P8 .

SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used with the HDC-401EX 32, 64, 128, 256 and 512 MB compatible.

Images can be captured without an SD memory card, as the camera has an internal 16 MB flash memory.

Copying Images in the Internal Memory to the SD Memory Card P65 is also possible.

For a reference on the possible number of shots and recording time, see

■ Specifications: Number of Recordable Images/Recording Time and Data Size P97 .

The SD memory card is hereinafter referred to as the“memory card.”

If a memory card is used the memory card will be given priority, thus preventing the camera from recording to its internal memory or erasing images from the internal memory.

Turn off the power before replacing the memory card.
