Notes:
•
It may be necessary to format the SD card the first time it is used; especially if the
card has been used in devices other than your camera. When the SD card needs to be
formatted, an error beep will sound and the LCD will display “E2”. To format, see
Deleting an Image/Formatting Flash Memory or SD Card
in Section 3
.
•
The camera comes with a “dummy” SD card in order to prevent dust, dirt, or other
particles from entering the SD card slot. Always keep either the dummy SD card or a
real SD card in the slot in order to protect the slot.
•
When a real SD card is in the camera, the camera does not write to the internal flash
memory. When the dummy SD card is in the slot, the camera will save images to the
internal flash memory. When a real, full (no memory space available) SD card is in
the slot, remove that card and replace it with the dummy SD card. This will allow
images to be stored in the camera’s internal flash memory.
•
If the SD card is full, the LCD display will read “
” and the SD card icon will be
solid. If the SD card is write-protected, the LCD display will read “
” and the SD
card icon will flash.
•
If there is an error writing to the card, the LCD display will read “E1” and the SD
card icon will flash.

(this section) for details on how to change modes.
Changing the resolution
Your camera offers two choices in resolution: “high” and “low”. “High” resolution is 1.3-
megapixel (1280 x 1024 pixels) and “low” is VGA (640 x 480 pixels). The higher resolution
setting allows for an image to be printed as large as 4 x 6 inches, but requires more memory
to store. The lower resolution setting will allow for more images to be stored on the camera,
but does not ensure print-quality detail. It is best suited for images to be e-mailed or posted
on a Web site.
