Step 3—Insert the Memory Card

Introduction— First Steps

Your Nikon digital camera uses CompactFlash(CF) memory cards or IBM Microdrive® memory cards to store pictures. See “Technical Notes: Optional Accessories” ( 151) for a list of approved memory cards

3.1 Turn the camera off

Make sure that the power-on lamp is off be- fore inserting or removing memory cards. Rotating the power switch in the direction shown turns the camera on and off.

3.2 Insert the memory card

Open the card-slot cover (see (1) below) and make sure the eject button is pressed all the way down (2).

Memory cards are labeled with an arrow (▲) showing the direction of insertion. Holding the card with this label facing the card-slot cover, insert the card in the direction of the arrow (3), sliding it in until it is firmly in place.
