Inserting a Memory Card

Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, optional xD-Picture Cards and SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used to store additional pictures.

When no memory card is inserted, aappears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become cor- rupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 78). To prevent internal memory from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.

When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.

Compatible Memory Cards

xD-Picture Cards and SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been approved for use in the cam- era. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_ cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with MultiMediaCard (MMC).

3Caution

SD memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete images. Before inserting an SD memory card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position.
