INSERTING AND CHANGING A MEMORY CARD
A memory card must be inserted for the camera to operate. If a card has not been inserted, “----” is
displayed in the frame counter. Type I and II CompactFlash cards and Microdrives are compatible
with this camera. For memory card care and handling, see page 142.

Always turn off the camera and confirm the access lamp is not lit before inserting or
removing a memory card, otherwise the card may be damaged, and data lost.
1. Open the card-slot door in the direction indicated.
2. Insert a memory card all the way into the card slot.
Insert the card so the face is toward the front of the
camera. Always push the card in straight. Never
force the card. If the card does not fit, check that it
is oriented correctly.
3. Close the card-slot door.
4. To eject a card, open the card-slot door, and press
and release the card-eject lever to extend it.
5. Press the card-eject lever to eject the card. The card
can now be pulled out. Take care when removing
the card as it becomes hot with use. The card-eject
lever should remain inside the camera body. If it
extends, push it into the camera.
6. Insert a new memory card and close the card-slot
door.

If the “Unable to use card, Format?” message appears, the card should be formatted with the
camera. Use the right/left keys of the controller to highlight the yes button. Press the central button
of the controller to format the card; this can take several minutes depending on the card. When a
card is formatted, all the data on the card is permanently erased. Selecting “No” cancels the
formatting operation; remove the card from the camera. A memory card used in another camera
may have to be formatted before being used.
If the card-error message appears, press the central button of the controller to close the window;
check the Konica Minolta web site for the latest compatibility information:
