Notes on the xD-Picture Card™, the SD Memory Card and the Internal Memory

ZHandling Memory Card

•When inserting the Memory Card into the camera, hold the Memory Card straight as you push it in.

•Never remove the Memory Card or turn the camera off during data recording or erasing (Memory Card formatting) as this could be damaged to the Memory Card.

•The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with FinePix S8000fd.

The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when xD- Picture Cards other than those manufactured by FUJIFILM are used.

•The Memory Card may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after taking pictures. This is normal.

•Do not put labels on the Memory Card. Peeling labels can cause the camera not to work properly.

MEMO Type M and H of xD-Picture Card

•Type M

There are two types of Memory Card: standard type and Type M (containing “M” in the model number, such as DPC-M2GB).

FinePix S8000fd is compatible with Type M.

•Type H

Type H and M share the same compatibility.

•Usable USB drive

Type H cannot be used with xD-Picture Card USB drive DPC-UD1, while Type M can.

ZInternal Memory

•Images held in the camera’s internal memory may be corrupted or erased due to problems such as camera faults. Save your important data to another media (i.e., DVD-R, CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).

•Data stored in the camera’s internal memory cannot be guaranteed in the event that the camera is submitted for repairs.

•When the camera is repaired, any data stored in the camera’s internal memory is subject to checking by the repairer.

ZUsing Memory Card or Internal Memory with a PC

•When taking pictures using a Memory Card or internal memory that has been used on a PC, reformat the Memory Card using your camera.

•When formatting, a directory (folder) is created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.

•Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file names on the Memory Card or internal memory because this will make it impossible to use the Memory Card or internal memory in your camera.

•Always use the camera to erase image data.

•To edit image data, copy or transfer the image data to the PC and edit the copied or transferred data.
