Recording pictures to the internal memory

pictures reaches 0, you must connect the camera to a computer to download the

pictures, and then erase the pictures from the internal memory.

Using a card (optional)

• Pictures are recorded to the card when inserted in the camera. When the card is full, you

download the pictures to a computer, and then either erase the pictures from the card or

use a new card.

• Pictures are not recorded to the internal memory when a card is inserted in the camera.

Pictures in the internal memory can be copied to the card using the [BACKUP] function.
