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 status 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.
