The handling of image files in internal memory
Image files contained in the internal memory should be handled as described below.
<Procedure for handling images>
When either of following work is necessary, as many as possible of the image files should be extracted from the camera's
internal memory and then written into the internal memory in the repaired or replacement camera before the camera is
returned to the customer.
1. When the replacement camera is provided.
2. If adjustment using the adjustment software is required.
--->To prevent accidental erasure, carry out this step not only when the MAIN PWB ASSY is replaced but in all cases.
*Note
For PTP-connected cameras, carry out the procedure in "ii. Procedure for PTP-connected cameras and images that cannot be
downloaded to a PC".
<Image file transfer procedure>

recognized by the PC to the folder created in the previous step.
• Check that the images can be displayed correctly on the PC.
(2) Return the backed up image files from the PC to the camera.

• Without inserting an memory card, connect the camera to the PC and copy the image files from the folder containing
the images backed up in the previous step onto the removable disk recognized by the PC.
