Installing the SD Card
Write Protect Tab
The SD card has a write protect tab. Sliding the tab downward prevents recording of data and protects existing data (e.g. images). When recording to, erasing from or formatting the SD card, slide the tab upward.
| Ensure that the SD card is correctly oriented before inserting it in the camera. It may damage the camera if inserted backward by mistake. |
Turn the camera power off and insert the SD card with the following procedures.
- Slide the SD card slot/battery cover in the direction of the arrows.
*SD300 shown. For other models the details are slightly different.

- Push it in with your finger or the white portion of the wrist strap, as illustrated on the camera bottom, until it clicks into place.
- Do not touch or allow metal objects to contact the terminals on the back of the SD card.
- Slide the SD card slot/battery cover closed.
To Remove the SD card
Push the SD card with your finger or the toggle on the wrist strap until it clicks and then release it.

- Please watch the loading slot area carefully as you insert and remove the SD card.
- Since the camera is writing, reading, erasing or transmitting data to or from the SD card when the indicator blinks green, never perform the following actions during this time. It could corrupt the image data.
- Subject the camera body to vibration or shocks.
- Turn the camera's power off, or open the SD card slot/battery cover.
- Please note that SD cards formatted with other manufacturers' cameras or a computer, or formatted or edited with application programs, may slow down writing to the SD card or may not operate correctly in the camera.
- You are recommended to use SD cards that have been formatted in your camera. The card supplied with the camera may be used without further formatting.
