Getting to know your camera better
There are two ways to record the pictures you take with this camera.
Recording pictures to the internal memory
Pictures are recorded to the internal memory, and when the number of storable still pictures
reaches 0, you connect the camera to a computer to download the pictures; and then erase the
pictures from the internal memory.
Using a card (xD-Picture Card) (optional)
Pictures are recorded to the card when inserted in the camera. When the card is full, you can
download the pictures to a computer and then either erase the pictures from the card or use a new
card.
Pictures are not recorded to the internal memory when a card is inserted in the camera. Pictures in
the internal memory can be copied to the card using the [BACKUP] function.
