Preparing for Shooting
B Opening/Closing the Battery-Chamber/Memory Card Slot Cover
Do not open and close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover in a sandy or
dusty environment or with wet hands. If the cover is closed without removing
foreign particles, water may seep inside the camera or the camera may become
damaged.
• If foreign particles get inside the cover or camera, immediately remove them with a
blower or brush.
• If liquid such as water gets inside the cover or camera, immediately wipe it off with
a soft and dry cloth.
Removing the Battery or Memory Card
Turn the camera off and make sure that the power-on lamp and monitor have
turned off, and then open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover.
• Move the battery latch to eject the battery.
• Gently push the memory card into the camera to partially eject the memory
card.
• Be careful when handling the camera, battery, and memory card
immediately after using the camera, as they may become hot .
Memory Cards and Internal Memory
Camera data, including images and movies, can be saved either on a memory
card or in the camera’s internal memory. To use the camera’s internal memory,
remove the memory card.
