## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you download picture with a ubs cable. if so what type.**
A: Yes, pictures are downloaded with a cable, which comes with the camera.

**Q: What kind of memory card do I need?**
A: I found the SD-HD ones did NOT work, and used plain (older version) SD 2 GB or 4 GB cards.  They are relatively cheap, so I store used ones as back-up for my photos, and buy 3 or 4 at a time. You'll get plenty of photos on a small card, but not a lot of video time.

**Q: Anyone else having problems getting the flash to charge?**
A: No problem here.  Possible cause that comes to mind: using NiCad batteries instead of alkaline.  Nicad batteries default voltage might be too low (1.2 volt fully charged); alkaline are 1.5 volt or higher fully charged

**Q: Does the camera come with an instruction/manual booklet?**
A: It comes with a Getting Started pamphlet and a comprehensive manual is on the included CD.
