USING A MEMORY CARD

Memory Card Precautions
Use only an SD memory card or a MultiMediaCard with
this camera. Proper operation is not guaranteed when
any other type of card is used.
Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other
phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even
lost. Always make sure that you always back up important
data on other media (MO disc, computer hard disk, etc.).
If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can
restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, we
recommend that you always take along more than one
memory card whenever using the camera far away from
the home or office.
We recommend that you format a memory card before
using it for the first time after purchasing it, or whenever
the card you are using seems to be the cause of
abnormal images.
Before starting a format operation, check to make sure
that the batteries are fully charged. Power interruption
during the format operation can result in improper
formatting, and even damage the memory card and make
it unusable.
