If the card/battery door cannot be completely closed, remove the card, check its direction and then insert it again.

Remove the battery after use. Store the removed battery in the battery carrying case (supplied).

Do not remove the battery until the LCD monitor and the status indicator (green) turn off as the settings on the camera may not be stored properly.

The supplied battery is designed only for the camera. Do not use it with any other equipment.

Do not insert or remove the battery or the card while this unit is turned on. The data on the built-in memory or the card may be damaged. Be particularly careful while the built-in memory or the card is being accessed. (P21)

We recommend using a Panasonic card.

About the Built-in Memory/the Card (optional)

Card (optional)

The SD Memory Card, SDHC Memory Card and MultiMediaCard are small, lightweight, removable external cards.

The SDHC Memory Card is a memory card standard decided by the SD Association in 2006 for high capacity memory cards more than 2 GB.

The reading/writing speed of an SD Memory Card and an SDHC Memory Card is fast. Both types of card are equipped with a Write-Protect switch A that prevents writing and formatting the card. (If the switch is slid to the [LOCK] side, it is not possible to write or delete data on the card and format it. When the switch is slid to the other side, these functions become available.)
