Information about SD Memory Cards

Be absolutely certain to read the following instructions about format- ting and handling the memory card provided

in order to prevent malfunctions during image acquisition.

File system and formatting

So that the SD card works correctly and is detec- ted by the Leica IC80 HD, it has to use the "FAT" file system. Most memory cards are factory- formatted with FAT so that they can be used immediately.

An SD card cannot be formatted in the Leica IC80 HD. If it is necessary to format the card, use a computer to do so. You can also delete the files on the card in any digital camera that works with SD cards. During the deletion, the FAT file system is installed automatically.

Capacity

SD cards of class 4 and 6 can be used with the camera. Also so called SDHC (high capacity) cards with up to 32 GB memory are supported.

Write protection

Some SD memory cards are equipped with a slide for write protection. If the slide is pressed down, no new images can be

saved. In addition, existing images are protec- ted from being deleted.

If you cannot save any more images to the SD card, check to make certain that the write protection is disabled.

Orientation

Make sure that the memory card is oriented correctly before inserting it into the camera. If you accidentally insert the

card the wrong way around, this could damage the camera.
