Removing The Cf Card - Canon EOS-5D Instruction Manual

Removing the CF Card

Access lamp
When the access lamp is lit or blinking, it indicates that the images
are being written to or read by the CF card or being erased. While
the access lamp is lit or blinking, do not do any of the following.
Doing so may damage the image data, CF card, or camera.
• Shaking or banging the camera around.
• Open the CF card slot cover.
• Removing the battery.
If "Err CF" (Error CF) is displayed on the LCD panel, see page 120.
If you use a low-capacity CF card, it might not be able to record large
images.
A Microdrive is vulnerable to vibration and physical shock. If you use a
Microdrive, be careful not to subject the camera to vibration or physical
shock especially while recording or displaying images.
On the menu, if you set the [z Shoot w/o card] to [Off], it will prevent
shooting without a CF card. (p.99)
