Installing an SD Memory Card
This camera uses SD Memory Cards, SDHC Memory Cards or SDXC Memory
Cards. Captured images are 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
(p.36).
• Be sure to use this camera to format (initialize) an SD Memory Card that is
unused or has been previously used on other cameras or digital devices.
Refer to “Formatting the Memory” (p.148) for instructions on formatting
cards.
• Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or removing the SD
Memory Card.
• Allow the camera to dry completely before changing the SD Memory Card.
Avoid changing the card where the camera is likely to get wet or dirty, and
make sure that your hands are dry.
• Do not use excessive force when sliding the battery/card cover open and
closed because the waterproof seal may peel off. If the seal is not in the
correct position, the camera will not be waterproof.
• The number of still pictures that can be stored varies depending on the
capacity of the SD Memory Card and the selected number of recorded
pixels and quality level (p.187).
•
The power lamp blinks while the SD Memory Card is being accessed (data
is being recorded or read).
Backing Up Data
The camera may not be able to access data in the built-in memory in the case of a
malfunction. Use a computer or other device to back up important data in another
location.
Displaying data stored in the built-in memory
When an SD Memory Card is inserted in the camera, still pictures and movies on the
SD Memory Card are displayed. If you want to display still pictures and movies stored
in the built-in memory, turn the camera off and remove the SD Memory Card.
Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or removing the
SD Memory Card.
