7 Using the SD (Secure Digital) Card

• Using the SD Card

Your camera comes with built-in flash memory for storing pictures and 

video clips. You can expand the memory using a Polaroid SD card (sold 

separately) (up to 4GB). The camera senses whether a memory card is 

inserted, and automatically saves pictures and video clips accordingly. 

Note that you cannot save pictures or video clips to the built-in flash 

memory while a memory card is installed in the camera. See pages 106 to 

107 for storage capacities.

Memory card precautions:

1.  Use only a SD memory card with this camera. 

2.  Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause 

data corruption or even loss. Always make sure that you always back 

up important data on other media (MO disc, computer hard drive, 

etc.).

3.  If a memory card starts to behave abnormally, you can restore normal 

operation by formatting it. However, we recommend that you always 

take along with more than one memory card whenever using the 

camera far away from your home or office.

4.  We recommend that you format a memory card when using it for the 

first time, or whenever the card you are using seems to be the cause 

of abnormal pictures. Remember to format a memory card if it was 

used in another digital camera or other devices.
