The camera can use a CF card and SD card. Images can be recorded
when at least one card is installed in the camera.
If a card is inserted in both slots, you can select which card to record
images to or record the same images simultaneously on both cards
(p.116, 118).
If you use an SD card, be sure the card’s write-protect switch
is set upward to enable writing/erasing.
