Although the camera can store pictures in internal memory, optional SD memory cards (sold separately) can be used to store additional pictures.

When no memory card is inserted, a appears in the monitor and internal memory is used for recording and playback. Note that because camera malfunction could cause internal memory to become corrupted, the pictures in internal memory should periodically be transferred to a computer and saved on the computer hard disk or on removable media such as CDs or DVDs. The pictures in internal memory can also be copied to a memory card (see page 90). To prevent internal memory from becoming full, be sure to delete pictures when they are no longer needed.

When a memory card is inserted as described below, the card will be used for recording and playback.

Compatible Memor y Cards

SanDisk SD and SDHC memory cards have been approved for use in the camera. A complete list of approved memory cards is available at http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/index.html. Operation is not guaranteed with other cards. The camera can not be used with xD-Picture Cards or with MultiMediaCard (MMC) devices.

• Format memory cards before  rst use or after using them in a computer or other device. For more information on formatting memory cards, see page 98.

• Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card, seek medical assistance immediately.

• Do not use miniSD or microSD adapters that expose the back of the card. Failure to observe this precaution may cause damage or malfunction. Adapters that are larger or smaller than the standard dimensions of an SD card may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card.

• Do not a x labels to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.

• Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of SD memory card.

• The data in internal memory may be erased or corrupted when the camera is repaired. Please note that the repairer will be able to view pictures in internal memory.

• Formatting a memory card or internal memory in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image  les. Always use the camera to delete pictures from memory cards and internal memory; before editing or renaming  les, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals.
