Recording pictures
Pictures taken are stored in the internal memory.
You can also use an optional xD-Picture Card (referred to as “card” in this
manual) to store pictures. The card has greater capacity than the internal
memory, and so, is able to store more pictures. The card is convenient, for
example, when you are traveling and you want to take a lot of pictures.
(Internal memory basics
The internal memory corresponds to the film of a normal camera for recording
pictures you have taken.
Pictures recorded and stored in the internal memory can easily be erased,
overwritten, and/or edited on a computer. The internal memory cannot be replaced
or removed from the camera.
The monitor displays which memory (internal or card) is being used for shooting and
displaying images.
• The internal memory and the card cannot be used at the same time.
• When the card is inserted, the internal memory is disabled. To use the internal
memory, remove the card.
• You can copy all the image data stored in the internal memory to a card.
