NOTES  Depending on the number of images on the memory card (Windows: more than 1,800 images; Macintosh: more than 1,000 images), you may not be able to download images to a computer. Try using a card reader.  Connection to a PictBridge compatible printer will not work when the memory card contains more than 1,800 images. For best performance, we recommend keeping the number of images on the memory card under 100. Advanced Functions
