LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.
Take test shots
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is recording correctly.

Preparing a Memory Card

Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
• For information about memory card capacities, see page 145.

Supported Memory Cards

– microSD Memory Card – microSDHC Memory Card – microSDXC Memory Card
• The above are supported memory card types as of January
2015.
• This camera supports use of microSD memory cards of the following types and capacities: microSD memory cards up to 2GB, microSDHC memory cards from 2GB up to 32GB, microSDXC memory cards from 32GB up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type requirements, is not guaranteed.
Warning!
*
0 Memory cards are small and present a risk of accidentally being swallowed
by infants and young children. Keep memory cards out of the reach of infants and young children. If a memory card is ever swallowed accidentally, contact a physician immediately.
+
. Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, high­quality movies may not be able to be stored correctly. A slow memory card can take too much time to record data and result in breaks in the image and/or audio during playback. When this happens the movie icon will turn yellow on the monitor screen.
