The Internal Memory And Memory Card - Olympus IR-300 Advanced Manual

The internal memory and memory card

Pictures taken are recorded in the internal memory.
Pictures can also be recorded to an xD-Picture Card ("card"), sold
separately. The card can be used to record more pictures than is possible
with the internal memory of the camera. A card can be convenient when
taking many pictures while on a trip.
