Holding the card in the orientation shown, slide it in until it clicks into place at the back of the slot. Close and latch the memory card slot cover.

Removing Memory Cards
Turn the camera off and open the memory card slot cover. Eject the card by pressing it in with a finger and then slowly releasing it; the card can then be removed by hand.
Press the center of the card.
Suddenly removing your finger from the card could cause the card to fall from the slot. Remove your finger slowly.
If the camera displays a p icon, the memory card may be hot to the touch. Wait for the card to cool before removing it.
Using Two Cards
The camera can be used with two cards, one in each of its two slots. At default settings, photos are saved to the card in the second slot only when the card in the first slot is full. This can be changed using D[SAVE DATA SET-UP] > x[CARD SLOT SETTING].
| Option | Description | Display |
|---|---|---|
| [SEQUENTIAL] (default) |
The card in the second slot is used only when the card in the first slot is full. If the second slot is selected for D[SAVE DATA SET-UP] > [SELECT SLOT(x SEQUENTIAL)], recording will start on the card in the second slot and switch to the first slot when the card in the second slot is full. |  |
| [BACKUP] | Each picture is recorded twice, once to each card. |  |
| [SEPARATE] | RAW pictures are recorded to the card in the first slot and JPEG or HEIF pictures to the card in the second slot. This setting takes effect only when [SUPER FINE+RAW], [FINE+RAW], or [NORMAL+RAW] is selected for H[IMAGE QUALITY SETTING] > [IMAGE QUALITY]. |  RAW+JPEG |
 RAW+HEIF |
The card used to store movies can be selected using B[MOVIE SETTING] > [MEDIA REC SETTING].

Do not turn the camera off or remove the memory card while the memory card is being formatted or data are being recorded to or deleted from the card. Failure to observe this precaution could damage the card.
Memory cards can be locked, making it impossible to format the card or to record or delete images. Before inserting a memory card, slide the write-protect switch to the unlocked position.
Memory cards are small and can be swallowed; keep out of reach of children. If a child swallows a memory card, seek medical assistance immediately.
miniSD or microSD adapters that are larger or smaller than memory cards may not eject normally; if the card does not eject, take the camera to an authorized service representative. Do not forcibly remove the card.
Do not affix labels or other objects to memory cards. Peeling labels can cause camera malfunction.
Movie recording may be interrupted with some types of memory card.
Formatting a memory card in the camera creates a folder in which pictures are stored. Do not rename or delete this folder or use a computer or other device to edit, delete, or rename image files. Always use the camera to delete pictures; before editing or renaming files, copy them to a computer and edit or rename the copies, not the originals. Renaming the files on the camera can cause problems during playback.
Using an external SSD in place of a memory card
This camera can save still images and movies to an SSD. If an SSD is connected to the USB connector, an icon appears on the screen, and the recording destination is switched to the SSD automatically. To record to a memory card, turn off the camera, and then remove the SSD.
Even when an SSD is connected, you can select the SSD or a memory card for playback by C[PLAY BACK MENU] > [SWITCH SLOT].
