Taking a Picture
Using a Memory Card
Your camera stores pictures on a removable Compact Flash memory storage card. A 4 MB Compact Flash card is included with the camera kit. You may purchase additional cards in varying sizes.
The camera does not contain internal storage memory; therefore, the camera will not operate fi a memory card is not inserted. The camera’s Status LCD displays an error if you try to operate the camera without a memory storage card. If you try to use the camera without a CF card, the camera will also generate a volley of quick beeps – if sounds are enabled.
To insert a CF memory card:
1Make sure the camera power is off.
2Hold the camera with the front facing you and open the rubber flap covering the memory card slot.
3Hold the memory card with the end containing the connectors pointing in towards the camera and the label of the CF card towards the front of the camera.
4Insert the card into the memory card slot and push it all the way in. The edge of the card should be flush with the camera slot when the card is properly inserted.
5Close the rubber cover.
6The camera will recognize the CF card and the camera will turn on.
7Turn the camera off if you do not plan to use it immediately.
To remove the memory card:
1Make sure the camera power is off.
2Hold the camera with the bottom facing you and open the rubber flap covering the memory card slot.
3Slide the Card Eject switch on the bottom of your camera until the memory storage card is released from the slot.
4Remove the memory storage card from the camera.
5Note: The camera will briefly display the “No Card” icon nine to ten times.
When your camera's CF memory card is full, the picture count on the Status LCD changes to "0", the ready light shines solid red, and the camera beeps repeatedly when you press the Shutter button. To take more pictures when the memory card is full:
♦Delete some of the pictures on the memory card.
♦Download the pictures to your computer and then erase them from the memory card.
♦Replace the full memory card with one containing free space.
