Please make sure that the write-protect switch on the side of the
card is "
OFF
" (NOT in the "Lock" position). The following
describes how to insert and remove the SD card:
Insert the SD card into the card slot with its label side upwards
.
A "click" sound indicates that the card is installed successfully.
If the wrong side of the card is facing up, you will not be able
to insert it without force-there is only one correct way to insert
cards. If the SD card is not installed correctly, the device will
not display an SD card icon on the LCD in
SET
mode
(the SD
card icon displayed after switching to SET mode will have a
"lock" symbol inside it in it if the card is locked).
Formatting
the SD card by using the camera's "Format" parameter before
using it for the first time is recommended, especially when a
card has been used in other devices
.
To take out the SD card, just gently push in the card (do not try
to pull it out without pushing in first). The card is released
from the slot and ready to be removed when you hear the click.
Be sure the camera's power is switched
OFF
before inserting
or removing SD cards or batteries.
5. USING THE CAMERA
Once you've prepared your camera by properly installing batteries
and an SD card, you could simply take it outside, strap it to a tree
(or not-according to your application scenario), switch it
ON
and
leave-and you might get some great photos that are exactly what
you wanted. However, we highly recommend that you first spend
some additional time indoors with this manual and your camera
until you know a bit more about what the 3-way switch and those
control keys do. If nothing else, you'll probably want to at least set
the date and time so the camera will imprint them (or not-it's your
option) on your photos as they are taken, learn how to set the
camera to shoot video clips instead of still photos if you like, and
read some tips about mounting it on a tree.
