ENGLISH

Inserting an SD/SDHC Card

Your camera has enough internal memory for a few practice pictures.

We highly recommend purchasing a Class 4 or higher SD/SDHC Card

to conveniently store more pictures/videos. (Card class is typically shown

on the card or packaging.)

CAUTION:

A card can only be inserted one way; forcing it may cause

damage. Inserting or removing a card while the camera is on

may damage the pictures, the card, or the camera.

1Turn off the camera, then open

the door.

2Insert a card until it clicks into

place. (To remove a card, press

and release it.)

IMPORTANT:

When you turn on the

camera, it checks to see if a card is

inserted. If pictures/videos are detected

in internal memory, the camera

prompts you to move them to the card.

New pictures/videos are stored on the

card.
