About the LCD monitor
●Due to the characteristics of liquid crystals, the brightness of the LCD monitor may appear
uneven with changes in temperature, etc.
●The LCD monitor has been developed using high-precision engineering and is superior in
sharpness and picture quality. Due to the nature of liquid crystals, however, there may be
missing or constantly lit pixels on the monitor. This is not a malfunction of the unit.
●If the LCD monitor becomes damaged for some reason, take care to prevent personal
injury from broken glass, etc. Furthermore, take care that liquid crystals do not touch the
skin or enter the eyes or mouth.
About the SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card
As well as the SD Memory Card included with this camera, Multi-Media Cards may also be
used.
Caution
SD Memory Cards and Multi-Media Cards are manufactured using precision electronic com-
ponents. Do not perform the following as malfunction or damage may occur as a result.
●Do not touch the terminal with hands or metal objects. Damage to the components may
occur as a result of static electricity. Before handling an SD Memory Card or Multi-Media
Card, discharge any static build-up from your body by touching grounded metal, etc.
●Do not bend, drop or apply excessive force.
●Avoid heat, liquid and direct sunlight when using and for storage.
●Do not open the battery/card cover or remove the SD Memory Card/Multi-Media Card
while data is being read or written.
●Do not dismantle or modify.

10
Important
●When using Multi-Media Cards, the operation response time may be longer during shoot-
ing and playback when compared with the SD Memory Cards. However, this is due to the
specification of the Multi-Media Card and is not a malfunction.
●The SD Memory Card includes a write-protect switch.
Sliding this switch downward prevents data from be-
ing written to the card and images, etc. saved on the
card are protected.
Please note that pictures cannot be taken or deleted
when the write-protect switch is on.
If such an operation is attempted, you will be notified
by an LED lighting in the viewfinder and a buzzer sound-
ing. (See page 22.)
●When using a large-capacity card, card check and deletion may take some time.
●Always back-up important data.
●When using SD Memory Cards/Multi-Media Cards on a PC, do not change the attributes
(read-only, etc.) of the files (image data) on the card. Doing so may prevent the camera
from working properly when deleting images, etc.
●Do not change the file names or the directory name of image data saved on an SD Memory
Card/Multi-Media Card using a PC or save files other than image data taken by this cam-
era. Images that have been changed or added will not only play back on the camera but
may cause the camera to malfunction as well.
●Always format SD Memory Cards/Multi-Media Cards using this camera. A card formatted
in a PC may not operate properly.
●Data loss may occur at times due to malfunction or damage. However, Konica will not be
responsible in any way in the event of such data loss.
