4.2. SD Card Insertion and Removal
This camera supports up to 32GB TF (Micro SD) storage cards. It has limited built-in memory, so inserting a TF card is essential for saving photos and videos.
- Locate the TF card slot on the side of the camera.
- Insert the TF card into the slot until you hear a "click" sound. The camera will display the TF card information on the LCD screen if inserted correctly.
- To remove, gently press the TF card inward until it clicks, then release. The card will eject slightly, allowing you to pull it out.
Important Notes:
- Once the TF card is inserted, all photos and videos will be saved to the card.
- Formatting the card will clear all data, including protected data.
- Do not remove the TF card during formatting to avoid damage.
