Internal Memory and SD Memory Card

This camera uses both an internal memory and an SD memory card for storing pictures. If you insert a card into the camera, pictures will automatically be stored on the card instead of in the memory. To store, view or delete pictures in the memory or to format the memory, remove the memory card first.
