Appendix

See page 28 for information about supported memory cards and how to load a 
memory card.

.

• SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards, and SDXC 

memory cards have a write protect switch. Use the 
switch when you need to guard against accidentally 
deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an 
SD memory card you must then turn write protection 
off whenever you want to record to it, format it, or 
delete any of its images.

• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during 

image playback, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 172). 
However, it is recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards 
whenever using the camera far away from the home or office.

• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it 

loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory 
card is recommended.

• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to 

become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data 
on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.).

.

Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speed. Whenever possible 
use an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card. Note, however, that not all operations 
can be guaranteed even if an Ultra High-Speed Type memory card is used. Certain 
movie quality settings can result in too much time being required to record data, 
which can result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. If this happens, 
the Y will turn yellow on the monitor screen.
