• Certain types of memory cards take longer to record data, which can cause movie frames to be dropped. “ ” and “ ” flash on the monitor screen during recording to let you know when a frame has been dropped. Use of an SD memory card with a maximum transfer speed of at least 10MB per second is recommended. • SD memory cards have a write protect switch. Use it when you need to guard against accidentally deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an SD memory card you must then turn write protection off whenever you want to record to the card, format it, or delete any of its images. GETTING READY 46 • Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, MO disk, hard disk, etc.). Loading a Memory Card into the Camera IMPORTANT! • Make sure you always turn off the camera before loading or removing a memory card. • Be sure to orient the card correctly when loading it. Never try to force a memory card into the slot when you feel resistance. 1. Open the battery cover. While pressing the battery cover, slide it in the direction indicated by the arrow. GETTING READY 47 2. Load a memory card into the camera. Positioning the memory card so its front is facing upwards (towards the monitor screen side of the camera), slide it into the card slot all the way in until you hear it click securely into place. Front Back 3. Close the battery cover. Swing the battery cover closed, and then slide it securely into place as you press it against the camera. Replacing the Memory Card 1. Remove the memory card from the camera. Press the memory card and then release it, so it comes part way out. Pull the card out the rest of the way by hand. 2. Load the other memory card. GETTING READY 48 IMPORTANT! • Never insert anything besides an SD memory card or MMC (MultiMediaCard) into the memory card slot. Doing so can lead to malfunction. • Should water or any foreign object ever get into the card slot, immediately turn off the camera, remove the battery, and contact your retailer or nearest CASIO authorized service center. • Never remove a card from the camera while the operation lamp is flashing green. Doing so can cause the image save operation to fail and even damage the memory card. Formatting a Memory Card Before using a new memory card for the first time, you need to format it. Once you format a memory card, you will not need to format it each time you use it. Formatting a memory card that already has files on it will delete its contents. IMPORTANT! • Note that data deleted by a memory card format operation cannot be recovered. Double-check to make sure that you really want to delete all the contents of the memory card before proceeding with the format operation. • Even if the file data on a memory card is protected (page 175), formatting the card will delete all its data. • Be sure to use the camera to format a memory card. Formatting a memory card on a computer and then using it in the camera can slow down data processing by the camera. In the case of an SD memory card, formatting on a computer can result in non-conformity with the SD format, causing problems with compatibility, operation, etc. GETTING READY 49 1. Load the memory card you want to format into the camera. 2. Turn on the camera and press [MENU]. 3. On the “Set Up” tab, select “Format” and then press [..]. 4. Use [..] and [..] to select “Format” and then press [SET] to start formatting. After formatting is complete, enter the PLAY mode and check to make sure the “There are no files.” message appears on the monitor screen. • To exit the format operation without formatting, select “Cancel”. ¦ Memory Card Precautions • If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it. However, it is recommended that you always take along more than one memory card whenever using the camera far away from the home or office. • If you feel that images are not being recorded normally, try reformatting the memory card. • As you record data to and delete data from an SD memory card a number of times, it loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of an SD memory card is recommended. • Make sure that the battery is charged fully before starting a formatting operation. Formatting may not be performed correctly and the memory card may be damaged if the camera powers down while formatting is in progress. • Never open the battery cover while formatting is in progress. Doing so can damage the memory card. GETTING READY 50 Using On-screen Menus Using On-screen Menus The following are menu operations you will need to use to configure camera settings.
