This camera can use CompactFlash, Microdrive or xD-Picture Card (optional). CompactFlash A CompactFlash is a largecapacity solid state flash memory card. You can use commercially available cards. Microdrive A Microdrive is a medium that uses a large-capacity compact hard disk drive. You can use a Microdrive that supports CF+Type II (CompactFlash extension standard). xD-Picture Card An xD-Picture Card is a recording medium used mainly in compact cameras. Information Precautions when using a Microdrive A Microdrive is a medium that uses a compact hard disk drive. Because the disk drive rotates, a Microdrive is not as resistant to vibration or impact as other cards. Special care is needed when using a Microdrive (especially during recording and playback) to make sure the camera is not subjected to shock or vibrations. Be sure to read the following precautions before using a Microdrive. Also, refer to the manuals provided with your Microdrive. • Be very careful when putting the camera down during recording. Place it gently on a firm surface. • Do not use the camera in places subject to vibrations or excessive shock, such as at a 12 construction site or in a car while driving along a bumpy road. • Do not take a Microdrive close to areas where it may be exposed to strong magnetism. x Notes • The data in the card will not be erased completely even after formatting the card or deleting the data. When discarding, destroy the card to prevent leakage of personal information. 124 EN
