Storing pictures on an SD or MMC card
Your camera has internal memory. You can purchase an SD or MMC card to
conveniently store more pictures and videos (www.kodak.com/go/c513accessories).
We recommend Kodak SD or MMC cards.
NOTE: When using the card for the first time, format the card in this camera before taking pictures (see
page 26). To choose a storage location for pictures and videos, see page 24.
CAUTION:
A card can only be inserted one way; forcing it may cause
damage. If you insert or remove a card while the camera is
accessing it, the card, pictures, or camera may be damaged.
See page 50 for storage capacities.
1Turn off the camera.
2Insert or remove the
optional card.
3Turn on the camera.
