Ricoh R4 manual SD Memory Card available in stores, Where images are recorded

SD Memory Card (available in stores)

You can store still images you have taken either in the camera’s internal memory or on an SD memory card (available in stores). The internal memory capacity is 26 MB.

To record a lot of still images, movies or sounds at high resolutions, use a high-capacity SD memory card.

Note

Where images are recorded

When no SD memory card is loaded, the camera records images to the internal memory; when an SD memory card is loaded, it records images to the memory card.

Caution

•If an SD memory card is loaded, the camera will not record to the internal memory, even if the card is full.

•Take care not to get the contacts of the card dirty.

Note

Write-protecting your images

Move the write-protection switch on the SD memory card to LOCK to prevent your still images from being accidentally erased or the card from being formatted. If you unlock the card (by returning the switch to its original position), it is once again possible to erase images and format the card.

It is recommended to move the write-protection switch to LOCK when you have some important data recorded.

Note that you cannot shoot images on a locked card because no data can be recorded to the card. Unlock the card before shooting.
