| Storage |
- 16 MB internal NAND flash memory
- 64 MB SDRAM
- Slot for memory card
- This camera supports both standard and high speed
Secure Digital (SD) and MultiMediaCard (MMC) memory
cards from 16 MB up to 1 GB. Only MMC cards that
have been verified compliant to the MultiMediaCard
specification are supported. Compliant MMC memory
cards have the MultiMediaCard
logo on the card or package.
- SD cards are recommended, as they are faster than
MMC cards at reading and writing data.
- This camera supports memory cards up to 1 GB.
A high capacity card itself does not affect camera
performance, but a large number of files (over 300)
does affect the time it takes for the camera to
turn on.
- The number of images that can be saved in memory
depends on the Image Quality settings.

- Still pictures - Audio clip

NOTE:
|
Not all 16 MB of internal memory
is available for storing images, because some
memory is used for internal camera operations.
Also, the actual file sizes and number of still
images that can be stored in the internal memory
in the camera or on an optional memory card will
vary, depending on the content of each still image
and the length of audio that has been recorded. |
