Changing the memory card

An SD Memory Card or MultiMediaCard must be inserted for the camera to operate. If a card has not
been inserted, a no-card warning is displayed on the monitor. For more about memory cards see
page 111.

1. Open the card-slot door by sliding the door toward the front of the camera.
2. Insert the memory card all the way into the card slot and release; the card should catch in the slot.
Insert the card so the face is toward the front of the camera. Always push the card in straight.
Never force the card. If the card does not fit, check that it is oriented correctly.
3. To eject a memory card, press the card into the slot and release. The card can then be pulled out.
Take care when removing the card as it becomes hot with use.
4. Slide the battery-chamber door toward the back of the camera to close it.
A memory card used in another camera may have to be formatted before being used. If the unable-
to-use-card message appears, the card should be formatted with the camera. A memory card can be
formatted in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 70). When a card is formatted, all the data on the
card is permanently erased. If the card-error message appears, press the central button of the con-
troller to close the window; check the Minolta web site for the latest compatibility information:
