The “Memory Stick”
“Memory Stick” is a new compact, portable
and versatile IC recording medium with a
data capacity that exceeds the capacity of a
floppy disk.
You can use the “Memory Stick” as an
external recording media that can be
attached or removed as well as exchanging
data between the units.
There are two types of “Memory Stick”: an
ordinary “Memory Stick” and a
“MagicGate Memory Stick” that are
equipped with the MagicGate copyright
protection technology. You can use both
types of “Memory Stick” with your camera.
However, because your camera does not
support the MagicGate standards, data
recorded with your camera is not subject to
MagicGate
*
copyright protection.
You can also use the “Memory Stick Duo”
and “Memory Stick PRO” with the camera.
*
MagicGate is copyright protection technology
that uses encryption technology. The “Memory
Stick” formatted with a computer is not
guaranteed to operate with this camera.
**
The camera cannot record or play back the
data needed by the MagicGate function.
We cannot ensure all of the functions of each
“Memory Stick.”
