playback operations.

the lamp is indicating that it is reading or writing data. Doing so may damage the data in the
internal memory or the card and render the internal memory or card unusable.

Note
• Do not remove or load the battery or connect or disconnect the AC adapter while the camera
is on or the camera is connected to the other equipment. Doing so could affect the camera’s
internal settings or functions.
