7 Using Memory
• Using memory
Your camera comes with built-in flash memory for storing pictures and
video clips. You can expand the memory using a commercially available SD
card (up to 1 GB). The camera senses whether a memory card is inserted,
and automatically saves pictures and video clips accordingly. Note that
you cannot save pictures or video clips to the built-in flash memory while
a memory card is installed in the camera. See pages 77 to 78 for storage
capacities.
Memory card precautions:
1. An electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause
data corruption or even loss. Always make sure that you always back up
important data on other media (MO disc, computer hard drive, etc.).
2. If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal
operation by formatting it. However, we recommend that you always take
along with more than one memory card whenever using the camera far away
from your home or office.
3. We recommend that you format a memory card when using it for the first
time, or whenever the card you are using seems to be the cause of abnormal
pictures. Remember to format a memory card if it was used in another digital
camera or other devices.
