B Notes About Closing the Cover without Getting the Camera Strap
or Cord Caught
If the camera strap’s cord gets caught in the battery-chamber/memory card slot
cover when it is closed, the cover could be damaged. Before closing the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover, make sure that the strap or cord does not get
caught in it.
B Formatting Memory Cards
The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another device into
this camera, make sure to format it with this camera. Insert the card into the camera,
press the d button, and select Format card in the setup menu.
Removing Memory Cards
Turn the camera off and make sure that the
power-on lamp and the monitor have turned off,
and then open the battery-chamber/memory
card slot cover.
Gently push the memory card into the camera
(1) to partially eject the card (2).
B High Temperature Caution
The camera, battery, and memory card may be hot immediately after using the
camera.
Internal Memory and Memory Cards
Camera data, including images and movies, can be saved either in the camera’s
internal memory or on a memory card. To use the camera’s internal memory,
first remove the memory card.
