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 the SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card is fast. The SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card are equipped

formatting. (When the

A

 

 

switch is slid to the

If the card was formatted on a PC or other equipment, format it again on the camera. (P24)
