Do not change or delete the folder (directory) names or file names on the SmartMedia from the personal computer as this will make it impossible to use the SmartMedia in the camera.

•Always use the camera to delete image data on a SmartMedia.

•To edit image data, copy the image data to the computer’s hard disk and then edit the copied data.

•To record image data from the personal computer onto a SmartMedia card, use the PC and Macintosh® Connection Kit (optional).
