While the light remains lit, an operation is taking place, such as picture writing, reading, deletion or
formatting. While the light is lit, do not turn off the power or remove battery, card, AC adaptor (optional)
or DC coupler (optional), as this can cause data loss or damage. Keep the camera away from
vibrations, impact, or static electricity. Should any of these cause camera operation to be terminated,
attempt to perform the operation again.

The number of pictures you can take and the recording time varies in proportion to card
capacity (and depending on recording conditions and type of card).
