Recording Pictures; Relationship Between The Internal Memory And The Card - Olympus CAMEDIA C480 Zoom Advanced Manual

Recording pictures

Pictures taken are stored in the internal memory.
You can also use an optional xD-Picture Card (referred to as "card" in this
manual) to store pictures. The card has greater capacity than the internal
memory, and so is able to store more pictures. The card is convenient, for
example, when you are traveling and you want to take a lot of pictures.
(Internal memory basics
The internal memory corresponds to the film of a normal camera for recording
pictures you have taken.
Pictures recorded and stored in the internal memory can easily be erased,
overwritten, and/or edited on a computer. The internal memory cannot be replaced
or removed from the camera.
