Inserting and Selecting Memory
Cards
Memory cards, hereafter referred to simply as
"cards," store the digital images of the pictures
that you take with the camera. The camera can
hold one SmartMedia (SM) and one
CompactFlash (CF)/Microdrive* media card.
* Use of the Microdrive requires the B-32LPS/
B-30LPS lithium polymer battery set due to
the power requirements of the Microdrive.
SmartMedia
Make sure that the card access lamp is off. Lift
up the card cover lock while pressing the round
release button under it to open the card cover.
To insert a SmartMedia card, hold it with the
notched corner down and insert it straight into
the narrow slot closest to the rear of the
camera. Gently push in the card until it stops.
(You can see about 2 mm of the card above the
edge of the slot.)
To insert a CompactFlash/Microdrive card, hold
the card so that the arrow on the card can be
seen and points into the slot, then insert it
straight into the wider slot. Gently push in the
card until it stops.
Close the card cover and press it gently until it
locks.
To remove the SmartMedia card, press on it
gently to release it then remove it from its slot.
To remove the CompactFlash/Microdrive card,
gently press the eject button to release it then
remove it from its slot.
When one card is installed in the camera, that
card is automatically selected to store images.
With both cards installed, you can select either
card for storage. When one card becomes full,
you can quickly switch to the other card and
continue shooting. Press and hold down the
SM/CF memory card button, and then slowly
turn the main dial or sub dial until you see
(SmartMedia) or (CompactFlash/
Microdrive) displayed in the control panel.
When you see , the SmartMedia card is

selected.
