Getting up and running
Changing the memory card
An SD Memory Card or MultiMediaCard must be inserted for the camera to operate. If a card has
not been inserted, a no-card warning is displayed on the monitor. For more about memory cards
see page 124.
Always turn off the camera and confirm the access lamp is not
lit before removing a memory card; damage and data loss may
result.
1. Open the card-slot door on the bottom of the camera.
2. Insert the memory card all the way into the card slot and release; the card should catch in the
slot. Insert the card so the face is toward the back of the camera. Always push the card in
straight. Never force the card. If the card does not fit, check that it is oriented correctly. 
3. To eject a memory card, press the card into the slot and release. The card can then be pulled out.
Take care when removing the card as it becomes hot with use.
4. Close the battery-chamber door.
A memory card used in another camera may have to be formatted before being used. If the unable-
to-use-card message appears, the card should be formatted with the camera. A memory card can
be formatted in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 74). When a card is formatted, all the data on
the card is permanently erased. If the card-error message appears, press the central button of the
controller to close the window; check the Konica Minolta web site for the latest compatibility infor-
