NOTES

•Depending on the number of images on the memory card (Windows: 1,800 images or more; Macintosh: 1,000 images or more), you may not be able to transfer images to a computer. Try using a card reader.

•Connection to a PictBridge-compatible printer will not work when the memory card contains 1,800 images or more. For best performance, we recommend keeping the number of images on the memory card under 100.
