The “Memory Stick” is a new light and small recording media which, despite of the
size, can store greater data than a floppy disk.
In addition to recording images and easily playing back images you want to see, the
“Memory Stick” allows operations such as:
– Copying images into the “Memory Stick” from the tape
– Capturing images into the computer using the supplied USB cable
– Image deletion, protection and writing (with a print mark).
