Removable Memory Card 
The camera uses a removable memory card, also referred to as a CompactFlash 
or KODAK Picture Card, for storing your pictures. The camera cannot take 
pictures without the memory card. You can erase or protect the picture data on 
the card and then reuse it. To reformat a memory card, see page 42.
The removable memory card contains no moving parts. It stores information and 
retains it when the card is removed from your camera or until you either delete it 
or reformat the card. Normal magnetic interference and airport x-rays do not 
harm the stored information.
The KODAK Picture Card is furnished with your camera. Additional memory 
cards are available from dealers of KODAK products or from our Website at 
http://www.kodak.com/go/accessories. Any standard CompactFlash card that is 
“CF” certified will function properly.
