The internal memory and card are the camera's media for recording pictures, similar to film in a film camera.
Pictures recorded to the internal memory or card can be easily erased on the camera or processed using a
computer.
Unlike portable storage media, the internal memory cannot be removed or exchanged.
The number of recordable pictures can be increased by using a card with a larger capacity.
