Camera maintenance

When you carry a memory card, use a case to protect the card from electrostatic discharges.

Transfer important data to other media, such as a hard disk, CD, or DVD.

When you use the camera for an extended period, the memory card may become warm. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.

The manufacturer is not responsible for any loss of data.
