Getting Started Installing the SD Memory Card This camera uses SD Memory Cards, SDHC Memory Cards or SDXC Memory Cards. (These cards are referred to as SD Memory Cards 1 hereafter.) Captured images and sound files are saved on the SD Memory Card when a card is inserted in the camera. They are saved in the built-in memory when a card is not inserted (p.42). • Be sure to use this camera to format (initialize) an SD Memory Card that is unused or has been used on other cameras or digital devices. Refer to "Formatting the Memory" (p.190) for instructions on formatting. • When you intend to use a brand-new Eye-Fi card for the first time, copy the Eye-Fi Manager installation file to your computer before formatting the card. • Make sure that the camera is turned off before inserting or removing the SD Memory Card. • The still picture storage capacity varies depending on the capacity of the SD Memory Card and the selected number of recorded pixels and quality level (p.41). • The self-timer lamp blinks while the SD Memory Card is being accessed (data is being recorded or read). Backing Up Data The camera may not be able to access data in the built-in memory in the case of a malfunction. Use a computer or other device to back up important data in another location. 39
