Getting to know your camera better
There are two ways to record the pictures you take with this camera.
Recording pictures to the internal memory
• Pictures are recorded to the internal memory, and when the number of storable still pictures
reaches 0, you connect the camera to a computer to download the pictures; and then erase the
pictures from the internal memory.
Using a card (xD-Picture Card) (optional)
• Pictures are recorded to the card when inserted in the camera. When the card is full, you can
download the pictures to a computer and then either erase the pictures from the card or use a new
card.
• Pictures are not recorded to the internal memory when a card is inserted in the camera. Pictures in
the internal memory can be copied to the card using the [BACKUP] function.
