# Handling SD memory cards

The SD memory card can be removed and inserted, either before or after the power is turned on.

## Inserting SD memory cards

Open the slot cover.

Insert the card into the SD memory card slot with the label side of the SD memory card (optional) upward, and close the slot cover.

NOTE

- The SD memory card must be inserted with the correct side facing the SD card slot. If the SD memory card is hard to insert, it may be reversed or upside-down. Do not force it into the slot. Check the orientation of the card before re-inserting it.

- On the camera, use SD memory cards that are compliant with the SD, SDHC or SDXC standards.

- For details on handling SD memory cards, refer to “Cautions when using SD memory cards”.

## Removing SD memory cards

After opening the slot cover and making sure that the busy lamp is not illuminated, push the SD memory card further into the main unit and then release. This releases the SD memory card from the card slot. Remove the SD memory card and close the slot cover.

### Note the following points when using or storing memory cards.

- Avoid high temperature and humidity.

- Avoid water droplets.

- Avoid charging with electricity.

Store the SD memory card with the card still inserted into the camera and with the slot cover closed.
