Both the Type M and Type H xD-Picture Cards enable high storage capacities to be achieved at a lower cost per megabyte compared to standard xD-Picture Cards. Using a new, compressed method of digital data storage, higher capacities are achievable with minimal impact on read and write times.
Fujifilm xD-Picture Cards are covered under a lifetime guarantee. In order to maximize the life span of your xD Picture Card, we recommend the following:
Protecting Your Data
Images and movies may be lost or destroyed in the following situations. Please note that FUJIFILM assumes no responsibility for data that is lost or destroyed.
- Removal of the memory card or turning the power off while the memory card is being accessed (i.e., during record, erase, initialization, and playback operations).
- Improper handling and use of the memory card by the user or third party.
- Save your important data to another media (i.e., MO disk, CD-R, hard disk, etc.).
Handling xD-Picture Card
- When storing xD-Picture Cards, make sure that they are kept out of the reach of children. An xD Picture Card could be swallowed cause suffocation. If a child swallows an xD-Picture Card, seek medical attention or call emergency number right away.
- When inserting the xD-Picture Card into the camera, hold the xD-Picture Card straight as you push it in.
- Do not expose an xD-Picture Card to shock. Do not apply pressure, and avoid bending.
- Do not use or store xD-Picture Card in hot and humid places.
- Clean the xD-Picture Card with a soft dry piece of cloth when dirty.
- When carrying or storing an xD-Picture Card, keep it in the special protective case.
- The xD-Picture Card will work well for long time, but will sooner or later lose its ability to store and play back images or movies. If this happens replace it with a new xD-Picture Card.
- Never remove the xD-Picture Card or turn the camera off during data recording or erasing (xD picture Card formatting) as this could be damaged to the xD-Picture Card.
- The use of xD-Picture Cards is recommended with the FinePix A345 / FinePix A350.
- The recording quality cannot be guaranteed when xD-Picture Cards other than those manufactured by FUJIFILM are used.
- The xD-Picture Card may feel warm when it is removed from the camera after taking pictures. This is normal.
- Do not put labels on the xD-Picture Card. Peeling labels can cause the camera not to work properly.
Using xD-Picture Card with a PC
- When taking pictures using an xD-Picture Card that has been used on a PC, reformat the xD-Picture Card using your camera for best quality.
- When formatting an xD-Picture Card, a directory (folder) is created. Image data is then recorded in this directory.
- Do not change or delete the directory (folder) or file names on the xD-Picture Card because this will make it impossible to use the xD-Picture Card in your camera.
- Always use the camera to erase image data on an xD-Picture Card.
- To edit image data, copy the image data to the PC and edit the copy.
