Care and maintenance / 183
For memory cards
• While a picture is being stored or the memory card
is being read, it should not be removed, the camera
turned off or exposed to vibrations.
•To protect them, memory cards should always be
stored in the yellow antistatic container supplied.
• Do not store the memory card where it will be
exposed to high temperatures, direct sunlight,
magnetic fields or static discharge.
• Do not drop the memory card or bend it, as this
could damage the card and result in loss of the
saved data.
• Always remove the memory card, if you will not be
using the camera for a long period of time.
• Do not touch the contacts on the back of the
memory card and keep them free of dirt, dust and
moisture.
•We recommend formatting the memory card from
time to time, as certain residual quantities of data
(subsidiary information, particularly for sound
recordings) can take up some of the memory
capacity.
Storage
• Always remove the battery and memory card when
storing the camera.
•You should preferably store the camera in a closed
and padded container so that nothing can damage
it and it is protected from dust.
•Store the camera somewhere where it will be pro-
tected from high temperatures and humidity. When
used in humid conditions, the camera should be
completely free of all moisture before being stored
away.
•To prevent the formation of fungus, do not store
the camera in the leather case for long periods of
time.
Data structure on the memory card
If the data saved on a card is transferred to a compu-
ter, the following folder structure is used:
The 100LEICA, 101LEICA, etc. folders can be used to
store up to 999 pictures.
• The MISC folder can be used to store pictures with
printer order settings (DPOF).
•The animation files are stored in the PRIVATE1
folder
