About SD Memory Cards SD Memory Cards (sold separately) are referred to in this manual as "SD cards". Note the information given below on handling SD cards. Notes on Using SD Cards • SD cards contain built-in nonvolatile semiconductor memory. Recorded data is not generally corrupted (or erased) during normal use, but misuse can result in data corruption (loss). Toshiba accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages or loss arising from the corruption (loss) of data stored on SD cards, regardless of the details or cause. • Because part of the memory on an SD card is used as the system area, the actual available memory capacity is smaller than stated card capacity. • Always format SD cards in the camera. Formatting an SD card on another device (such as a PC) can cause problems that may prevent data being written to or read from the card. • You should always make backup copies of important data. • SD cards have a limited operating life. If you are no longer able to record or erase images on an SD card that has been used for a long period, you should purchase a new SD card. • Take care that young children do not accidentally swallow an SD card as this could cause choking. • This camera conforms to SD standard version 1.01. Write-protection To prevent important data from being accidentally erased, you can lock (write-protect) an SD card by moving the write-protect tab on the side of the card to the LOCK position. To record, edit or erase data on the card, return the tab to the unlocked position. LOCK Write-protect tab LOCK Locked IMPORTANT • The use of high-speed SD cards (10MB/sec or faster) is recommended. Using SD cards with slower data transfer rates may prevent normal video recording and playback. • Not all third-party SD cards are guaranteed to work with this camera. 22
