Supported Memory Cards Your camera supports use of the following types of memory cards. SD Memory Card SDHC Memory Card MMC (MultiMediaCard) MMCplus (MultiMediaCardplus) • For information about memory card capacity, see page 259. Memory Used for Storage Images recorded while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card is loaded, images are saved in built-in memory. • Note that you cannot save images in built-in memory while a memory card is loaded in the camera. IMPORTANT! • See the instructions that come with the memory card for information about how to use it. • Certain types of cards can slow down processing speeds. If you are using a slow memory card, you may not be able to record a movie using the "UHQ", "UHQ Wide", "HQ", or "HQ Wide" image quality setting. Because of this, use of a memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended. • Certain types of memory cards take longer to record data, which can cause movie frames to be dropped. " " and " " flash on the monitor screen during recording to let you know when a frame has been dropped. Use of a memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended. • SD memory cards and SDHC memory cards have a write protect switch. Use it when you need to guard against accidentally deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect a memory card you must then turn write protection off whenever you want to record to the card, format it, or delete any of its images. • Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, MO disk, hard disk, etc.). GETTING READY 46
