First Steps
Inserting Memory Cards
Pictures are stored in the camera’s internal memory (approx. 52 MB) or on
removable Secure Digital (SD) memory cards (available separately) (A 137).
If a memory card is inserted in the camera, pictures are automatically stored on the
memory card and pictures recorded to the memory card can be played back,
deleted or transferred. Remove the memory card to store pictures in the internal
memory, or play back, delete or transfer pictures from the internal memory.
1 Turn the camera off and open the battery-
chamber/memory card slot cover.
If the power-on lamp is lit, press the power switch to turn
off the camera.
Make sure that the camera is off (power-on lamp is off)
before inserting or removing the memory card.
2 Insert the memory card.
Slide the memory card in correctly until it clicks into
place.
Close the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover.
B Inserting Memory Cards
Inserting the memory card upside down or backwards
could damage the camera or the memory card. Make
sure that the memory card is correctly oriented.
