6 Storing images in memory When you first unpack your digital camera and begin taking pictures, the images are stored in the camera's internal memory. This makes it easier than ever to save pictures; there's no need for film of any kind. You can delete unwanted images from the camera anytime, making space available for new images. However, your camera also has a slot for digital "film" in the form of a CompactFlash (CF) memory card (purchased separately). The card is more economical than conventional film because you can reuse the card over and over again. If you install a CF memory card in your camera, images are stored on the CF memory card rather than in the camera's internal memory. Note If your computer runs Windows NT or if it does not have a USB port, you must store images on a CF memory card. Then use a CF memory card reader to transfer images to your computer. This chapter describes how to use your camera with or without a CF memory card and how to copy images from internal memory to a CF memory card. Tip As long as you have a CF memory card in the camera, you can access only the images stored on the CF memory card. For more information, see "Using both internal memory and a CF memory card" on page 46. Storing images in memory 41

Storing images
in memory
When you first unpack your digital camera and begin taking
pictures, the images are stored in the camera’s internal memory.
This makes it easier than ever to save pictures; there’s no need for
film of any kind. You can delete unwanted images from the camera
anytime, making space available for new images.
However, your camera also has a slot for digital “film” in the form
of a CompactFlash (CF) memory card (purchased separately).
The card is more economical than conventional film because you
can reuse the card over and over again. If you install a CF
memory card in your camera, images are stored on the CF
memory card rather than in the camera’s internal memory.
Note
If your computer runs Windows NT or if it does not
have a USB port, you must store images on a CF
memory card. Then use a CF memory card reader
to transfer images to your computer.
This chapter describes how to use your camera with or without a
CF memory card and how to copy images from internal memory to
a CF memory card.
Tip
As long as you have a CF memory card in the
camera, you can access only the images stored on
the CF memory card. For more information, see
“Using both internal memory and a CF memory
card” on page 46.
