formatted with a PC or other device do not function properly.
• We recommend saving backups of memory card images on your PC's hard
drive or other external memory device. Image data may be damaged or
lost due to a defect in a memory card, or if a memory card is exposed to
static electricity. Contents of a memory card cannot be compensated for
should data become damaged or lost.
• Do not remove the power source or the memory card while the card access
