Pictures are stored in the camera’s internal memory (approximately 21 MB) or on removable Secure Digital (SD) memory cards (77). Internal memory is used for recording and deleting pictures only if no memory card is inserted.

Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover and slide the memory card in until it clicks into place. Close the memory card slot cover.

Check to be sure the card is in the correct orientation. Inserting the card upside down or backwards could damage the camera or the card.

If the message shown at right is displayed, the memory card must be formatted before use. Note that formatting permanently deletes all pictures and other data on the memory card. Be sure to make copies of any pictures you wish to keep before beginning formatting.
