Storing pictures on an accessory SD/SDHC Card
Your camera has internal memory. We recommend purchasing an SD or SDHC Card
(Class 4 or higher) to store more pictures/videos. You must use a Class 4 or
higher card to record HD video.
A card can only be inserted one way; forcing it may cause
damage. Inserting or removing a card while the camera is on may
damage the pictures, the card, or the camera.
IMPORTANT:
pictures/videos are stored on the card. If no card is inserted, new pictures/videos are stored in the
camera’s internal memory.
