Inserting the Memory Card

First Steps

The recorded data is stored in the camera’s internal memory (approx. 102 MB) or on commercially available Secure Digital (SD) memory cards (A214).

If a memory card is inserted in the camera, data is automatically stored on the memory card, and data recorded to the memory card can be played back, deleted, or transferred. To use the internal memory, remove the memory card.

A memory card is required for movie recording.

1Confirm that the power-on lamp and the monitor are turned off and open the battery-

chamber/memory card slot cover.

Be sure to turn off the camera before opening the cover.

BInserting the Memory Card Correctly

Inserting the memory card upside down or backwards could damage the camera or

the memory card. Be sure to confirm that the memory card is in the correct orientation.

Removing the Memory Card

Before opening the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover, turn the camera off and confirm that the power- on lamp and the monitor are off.

Press the memory card in lightly with your finger (1) to partially eject it, and then pull it out straight (2).

The camera, battery or memory card may be hot immediately after using the camera. Observe caution when removing the battery or memory card.
