About SD Memory Cards
SD Memory Cards (sold separately) are referred to in this manual
as “SD cards”.
Note the information given below on handling SD cards.
Notes on Using SD Cards
• SD cards contain built-in nonvolatile semiconductor memory. Recorded data is not
generally corrupted (or erased) during normal use, but misuse can result in data
corruption (loss). Toshiba accepts no liability whatsoever for any damages or loss
arising from the corruption (loss) of data stored on SD cards, regardless of the details
or cause.
• Because part of the memory on an SD card is used as the system area, the actual
available memory capacity is smaller than stated card capacity.
• Always format SD cards in the camera. Formatting an SD card on another device (such
as a PC) can cause problems that may prevent data being written to or read from the
card.
• You should always make backup copies of important data.
• SD cards have a limited operating life. If you are no longer able to record or erase
images on an SD card that has been used for a long period, you should purchase a new
SD card.
• Take care that young children do not accidentally swallow an SD card as this could
cause choking.
• This camera conforms to SD standard version 1.01.
Write-protection
To prevent important data from being accidentally
erased, you can lock (write-protect) an SD card by
moving the write-protect tab on the side of the card to
the LOCK position. To record, edit or erase data on
the card, return the tab to the unlocked position.
IMPORTANT
• The use of high-speed SD cards (10MB/sec or faster) is recommended. Using SD
cards with slower data transfer rates may prevent normal video recording and
playback.
• Not all third-party SD cards are guaranteed to work with this camera.
