Inserting a Memory Card
C Cautions
• Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card
while the memory card is being formatted or data are being
recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe
this precaution could damage the card.
• Format SD memory cards before first use, and be
sure to reformat all memory cards after using them
in a computer or other device. For more information
on formatting memory cards, see page 89.
• Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep
out of reach of children. If a child swallows a
memory card, seek medical assistance immediately.
• Do not use miniSD or microSD adapters
that expose the back of the card. Failure
to observe this precaution may cause
damage or malfunction. Adapters that
are larger or smaller than the standard
dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally;
if the card does not eject, take the camera to an
authorized service representative. Do not forcibly
remove the card.
• Do not affix labels to memory cards. Peeling labels
can cause camera malfunction.
• Movie recording may be interrupted with some
types of SD memory card.
• The data in internal memory may be erased or
corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note
that the repairer will be able to view pictures in
internal memory.
• Formatting a memory card or internal memory
in the camera creates a folder in which pictures
are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or
use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or
rename image files. Always use the camera to delete
pictures from memory cards and internal memory;
before editing or renaming files, copy them to a
computer and edit or rename the copies, not the
originals.
