Using the Camera in another Country

.Precautions during Use

•The bundled USB-AC adaptor is designed for operation with any power supply in the range of 100V to 240V AC, 50/60Hz. Note, however, that the shape of the power cord plug depends on each country or geographic area. Before taking the camera and USB-AC adaptor along on a trip, check with travel agent about the power supply requirements in your destination(s).

•Do not connect the USB-AC adaptor to a power supply through a voltage converter or similar device. Doing so can lead to malfunction.

.Extra Batteries

•Taking along extra fully charged batteries (NP-80) is recommended while on a trip in order to avoid not being able to shoot images due to the battery going dead.

Using a Memory Card

See page 19 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a memory card.

.Using a Memory Card

• SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards, and SDXC memory cards have a write protect switch. Use the switch when you need to guard against accidentally deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an SD memory card you must then turn write protection off whenever you want to record to it, format it, or delete any of its images.

•If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during image playback, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 104). However, it is recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards whenever using the camera far away from the home or office.

•As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory card is recommended.

•Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).
