Notes on the Media
■Image Memory Card
hThis Image Memory Card is a new image recording
media (xD-Picture Card) developed for digital
cameras. The Image Memory Card consists of a
semiconductor memory (NAND-type flash memory)
to record digital image data.
The recording process is electrically performed and
enables erasure of existing image data as well as re-
recording of new image data.
hWhen using a new Memory Card, or a Memory Card
that has been formatted by a PC, be sure to format
the card with your digital camera before using it.
■Microdrives
Microdrives are compact, lightweight hard disk drives
that conform to the CF+ Type II standard. Due to their
ample capacity for large image data files and their low
per-megabyte recording cost, Microdrives provide a
more economical way to save high-resolution image
files.
■Protecting Your Data
hImages and movies may be lost or destroyed in the
following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM
assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or
destroyed.
1.
Removal of the memory card or turning the power off
while the memory card is being accessed (i.e., during
record, erase, initialization, and playback operations).
2. Improper handling and use of the memory card by
the user or third party.
hSave your important data to another media (i.e., MO
disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).
■
Handling Media (all types)
hWhen inserting the media into the camera, hold the
media straight as you push it in.
hNever remove the media or turn the camera off
during data recording or erasing (media formatting)
as this could be damaged to the media.
hDo not bend, drop or otherwise subject the media to
strong force or shocks.
hDo not use or store these media in places with
affected by strong static electricity or electrical noise.
hDo not use or store media in hot humid places or in
places where they are exposed to corrosive
substances.
■Handling xD-Picture Card
hWhen storing xD-Picture Cards, make sure that they
are kept out of the reach of children. An xD-Picture
Card could be swallowed cause suffocation. If a child
swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek medical
attention or call emergency number right away.
hDo not expose an xD-Picture Card to shock. Do not
apply pressure, and avoid bending.
h
Do not use the xD-Picture Card in a hot or humid
place.
hClean the xD-Picture Card with a soft dry piece of
cloth when dirty.
hWhen carrying or storing an xD-Picture Card, keep it
in the special protective case.
hThe xD-Picture Card will work well for long time, but
will sooner or later lose its ability to store and play
back images or movies. If this happens replace it
with a new xD-Picture Card.
hThe use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with
the FinePix S9000 / FinePix S9500.
The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when
xD-Picture Cards other than those manufactured by
FUJIFILM are used.
hThe xD-Picture Card may feel warm when it is
removed from the camera after taking pictures. This
is normal.
hDo not put labels on the xD-Picture Card. Peeling
labels can cause the camera not to work properly.
■Using Microdrive
hDo not use hard-pointed pens to write on the
Microdrive label.
hDo not peel off the Microdrive label.
hDo not stick additional labels onto a Microdrive.
hWhen carrying or storing a Microdrive, keep it in the
protective case provided.
hWhen a Microdrive is used, vibration or impacts
during image data recording may prevent the image
data from being recorded correctly. Put the camera
down carefully when placing it on a desk or table, etc.
hDo not use Microdrive in CF+ Type II slots that do
not have an eject function.
hTake care when handling Microdrive that have been
used for long periods as they may become hot.
hDo not place Microdrives close to strong magnetic
fields.
hKeep Microdrive dry.
hDo not apply strong pressure to the Microdrive cover.
■Using Compact Flash
Contact the CompactFlash card manufacturer for
information on the CompactFlash functions, operation
details and system requirements.
Card types approved for use with the FinePix S9000 /
FinePix S9500 are listed on the FUJIFILM website.

hThe CompactFlash card may be hot immediately
after being used in the camera and should be
handled with care.
hDo not touch the card contact area with your fingers
or metal objects.
hUnused CompactFlash cards should be formatted
before being used.
■Using media with a PC
hWhen taking pictures using a media that has been
used on a PC, reformat the media using your camera
for best quality.
hWhen formatting a media, a directory (folder) is
created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.
hDo not change or delete the directory (folder) or file
names on the media because this will make it
impossible to use the media in your camera.
hAlways use the camera to erase image data on a
media.
hTo edit image data, copy the image data to the PC
and edit the copy.
