Your camera has internal memory. You can purchase SD or MMC cards to store more
pictures and videos. We recommend Kodak SD or MMC cards. (Visit
www.kodak.com/go/z712accessories.)
CAUTION:
A card can only be inserted one way; forcing it may cause damage.
Inserting or removing a card while it is being accessed by the
camera may damage pictures, card, or camera.
NOTE: When using the card for the first time, format it in this camera before taking pictures. (To access this
feature in the Setup menu, see page 17.)
1Turn off the camera.
2Insert or remove the
optional card.
