NOTE: Once you install a memory card, all new images and video clips are stored on the card, rather than in internal memory. To use internal memory and view images stored there, turn off the camera then remove the memory card. To transfer images from internal memory to an optional memory card, see Move Images to Card under Using the Playback Menu” on page 19.

For information about supported memory cards, see Storage” on page 43.
