The "Memory Stick"
"Memory Stick" is a new compact, portable
and versatile IC recording medium with a
data capacity that exceeds the capacity of a
floppy disk.
There are two types of "Memory Stick": an
ordinary "Memory Stick" and a
"MagicGate Memory Stick." You can use
both types of "Memory Stick" with your
camera. However, because your camera
does not support the MagicGate standards,
data recorded with your camera is not
subject to MagicGate* copyright
protection.
* MagicGate is copyright protection technology
that uses encryption technology.

Effective use of the battery
• Battery performance decreases in low-
temperature surroundings, and the battery
life is shortened under such
circumstances. To use the battery longer,
we recommend you keep the battery in a
pocket close to your body to warm it, and
insert it in your camera just before you
start shooting.
• If you use the LCD screen or shoot a lot
using the zoom, the battery power will be
used up faster.
• We recommend having spare batteries
handy for two or three times the expected
shooting time, and try test shooting
before the actually using the camera.
• Do not expose the battery to water. The
battery is not water-resistant.
