Installing the SD Memory Card
This camera uses an SD Memory Card. Captured images, movies and
voice recordings can be saved on the SD Memory Card if a card is
inserted in the camera. They are saved in the built-in memory if a card is
not inserted. (1p.25)

Insert the SD Memory Card into the SD Memory Card
socket so that the label is facing toward the front of the
camera (the side with the PENTAX logo).
Push the card in until it clicks. Images and sound may not be recorded
correctly if the card is not inserted all the way.
Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or removing
the SD Memory Card.
• A dummy card is inserted in the SD Memory Card socket when the
camera leaves the factory to protect the socket from scratches and
dust. Remove the dummy card before inserting the SD Memory
Card. No images or sound can be recorded on the dummy card.
• Be sure to format unused cards or cards that have been used on
another camera. Refer to “Formatting an SD Memory Card or the
Built-in Memory” (p.142) for instructions on formatting.
• The still picture storage capacity varies depending on the capacity
of the SD Memory Card and the selected number of recorded
pixels and quality level. (1p.22)
• Depending on the mode, the A button, C button or O button
blinks while the SD Memory Card is being accessed (data is being
recorded or read).
