NOTE: Once you install a memory card, all new images and video clips are stored
on the card, rather than in internal memory. To use internal memory and view images
stored there, turn off the camera then remove the memory card. To transfer images
from internal memory to an optional memory card, see Move Images to Card
under “
Using the Playback Menu” on page 19.
For information about supported memory cards, see “Storage” on page 43.
