MultiMediaCard

¬Suggestions/Tips ¬

The reading/writing speed of a MultiMediaCard is slower than an SD Memory Card. When a MultiMediaCard is used, the performance of certain features may be slightly slower than advertised.

After recording motion images using the MultiMediaCard, the flash/access indicator and card access indication may appear for a while, but this is not a malfunction.

Keep the Memory Card out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.
