Memory cards can be removed from the camera without loss of data when the camera is off. Once removed from the camera, cards can be read by a computer equipped with a CompactFlash card reader and photographs printed on suitably-equipped printers. Cards can also be inserted in a PC card adapter (sold separately) to be read by any computer with a Type II PC-card slot.

While your camera comes with an eight-megabyte card, additional cards of up to sixty-four megabytes can be purchased separately.

Using the menus

If the menu does not appear when you press the MENU button, press the MONITOR button until the LCD monitor comes on. Items can be highlighted using the zoom buttons and selected using the shutter-release button. To clear a menu from the screen, highlight BK and press the shutter-release button, or press the MENU button until the menu disap- pears.
