EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLIES (SOLD SEPARATELY)
INSERTING AND CHANGING A MEMORY CARD
The AC Adapter allows the camera to be powered from an electrical household outlet.
The AC Adapter is recommended when the camera is interfaced with a computer or
during periods of heavy use. AC Adapter model AC-1L is for use in North America,
Japan, and Taiwan, and AC-2L is for use in all other areas.
The External High-power Battery Pack Kit EBP-100 is a portable power source and
significantly extends the operating time of the camera. The kit contains a high-power
lithium-ion battery, holder, and charger. The battery, holder, and charger are also
available separately.
Insert the mini plug of the AC adapter or battery pack
into the DC terminal (2).
Insert the AC adapter plug into an electrical outlet.
Remove the DC terminal cover from the left (1). The
cover is attached to the body to prevent loss.
A memory card must be inserted for the camera to operate. If a card has not been
inserted, a no-card warning will be displayed on the monitors. Type I and II
CompactFlash cards and IBM Microdrives are compatible with this camera. For
memory card care and handling, see page 149.

Open the card-slot door in the direction indicated (1).
To eject a memory card, lift (2) then press (3) the card-eject lever. The card can now be
pulled out. Take care when removing the card as it becomes hot with use.
Insert a memory card into the card slot until the card-eject lever pops out (4). Insert the
card so the face is toward the front of the camera. Always push the card in straight.
Never force the card. If the card does not fit, check that it is orientated correctly.
Fold the card-eject lever down as shown (5) and close the card-slot door.
If the card-not-recognized message appears, the inserted card in the camera may need
to be formatted. A memory card used in another camera may have to be formatted
before being used. If the unable-to-use-card message appears, the card is not
compatible with the camera and should not be formatted. A card can be formatted in
the basic section of the playback menu (p. 106). When a card is formatted, all the data
on the card is permanently erased. If the card-error message appears, press the
central button of the controller to close the window; check the Minolta web site for the
latest compatibility information: North America: http://www.minoltausa.com, Europe:
