First Steps
Inserting a Memory Card
Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, SD memory cards (sold separately) can be
used to store additional pictures.
When no memory card is inserted, q appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording
and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become cor-
rupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on
the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory
can also be copied to a memory card (see page 53). To prevent internal memory from becoming full,
be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.
When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.

Compatible Memory Cards
SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards with capacities of up to 8 GB have been tested and approved
for use in the A850. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/
products/digital_cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can
not be used with multimedia or xD-Picture cards.
3 Caution
Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete
images. Before inserting a memory card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked posi-
tion.
