Removing The Card - Canon EOS 400D Digital Instruction Manual

Removing the Card

Access lamp
A blinking access lamp indicates that data is being transferred, read,
written, or erased on the CF card. While the access lamp is lit or
blinking, do not do any of the following. Doing so may damage the
image data. It may also damage the CF card or camera.
· Opening the CF card slot cover.
· Removing the battery.
· Shaking or banging the camera around.
If the CF card already contains recorded images, the image number
might not start from 0001. (p.96)
If a CF card-related error is displayed, see page 38.
Compared to CF cards, hard disk-type memory cards are more
vulnerable to vibration and physical shock. If you use a such a card, be
careful not to subject the camera to vibration or physical shock especially
while recording or displaying images.
On the menu, if you set [z Shoot w/o card] to [Off], it will prevent
shooting without a CF card. (p.94)
