• 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/SDHC 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 for-
matting memory cards, see “K FORMAT” (P 73).
• 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.
• miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions
of an SD/SDHC memory 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/SDHC memory card. Use
a G card or better when shooting HD movies.
• Formatting a memory card 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; before
editing or renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies,
not the originals.
