Inserting the SD memory card

The camera comes with 8MB of internal flash memory, allowing you to store images and movie clips in the camera. However, you can expand the memory capacity by using an optional SD memory card([CARD] stands for the SD memory card) so that you can store more images and movie clips.

1. Turn off the camera power and pull the card cover in the direction of the arrow to open.

2. Insert the card all the way into the card slot. The card pins and the LCD monitor should face in the same direction. The card will be fitted.

3. To close, push the card cover toward the arrow until you hear a click.

Once the CARD is inserted, the SD memory card indicator will appear on the LCD monitor.

If the CARD does not fit, check that it is inserted correctly. Do not force the card.

NOTICE

Insert the Multi Media Card(MMC) in the same way as the SD memory card is inserted. Should you insert the Multi Media Card in the opposite direction, it may still slide in, but part of it will project from the slot and it will not fit correctly. Do not force the card and don't close the battery chamber cover. Check the directions and re-insert the card correctly.
