Storing pictures on an SD or MMC card  
Your camera has 16 MB of internal memory. You can purchase an SD or MMC card to  
conveniently store more pictures and videos.  
NOTE: When using the card for the first time, format it in this camera before taking pictures (see Format on  
page 23). We recommend Kodak SD or MMC cards.
