Removing the Card

Access lamp
When the access lamp is lit or blinking, it indicates that the images
are being written to or read by the card, being erased, or data is
being transferred. While the access lamp is lit or blinking, never do
any of the following. Doing so may damage the image data. It may
also damage the card or camera.
• Opening the card slot cover.
• Removing the battery.
• Shaking or banging the camera around.
If the card already contains recorded images, the image number might
not start from 0001 (p.140).
Do not touch the card's contacts with your fingers or metal objects.
If a card-related error message is displayed on the LCD monitor, remove
and reinstall the card. If the error persists, use a different card.
If you can transfer all the images in the card to a computer, transfer all
the images and then format the card with the camera (p.42). The card
may then return to normal.
