  2. There is a micro USB port. SD slot can use 4GB SD card or 32GB SDHC card. Internal memory is small; two places in manual say 30MB and two places in manual say 128MB, not sure which is correct. Whether 30MB or 128MB is probably less than 100 photos at good quality setting or 2:00 video.

  11. The piece of cardboard stuck in the battery compartment? I took an old-fashioned ice pick from the kitchen and stuck it down there. Eventually I hooked it and was able to pull it out.

  12. How did you get the tab out? Did you unscrew anything?
    Thanks!

  13. Night shots are good if I force the flash off or use a mode like Night Scene. Even in fairly good night light the exposures can be 1 second or more. It has a tripod mount, but I rarely have a tripod with me when I need one. I try support it somehow and set a 2 second delay to keep my finger press from shaking it. I have to remember to jack up the ISO and adjust the EV and take practice shots if I get the chance

    I haven't had a paper jam yet. but I'm sure I will. Probably when my paper is older

  14. I have two questions:

    A: How are the night shot results in good light surroundings?

    B: I have heard printer getting stuck while printing?

    Thank you

  15. The instructions give a method to upload two custom borders. I've tried the best I could and couldn't get it to work. You need to create a file that is "transparent' in the middle so that the photo underneath shows up. Mine were always black or white in the middle - no photo underneath. They crashed my camera - kept it from being able to use ANY border. I had to delete them. I've had on-line conversations with other people wondering about this feature. Not one of them has gotten it work either.

  16. So, can you upload your own custom border to the unit?

  17. The Z340 can use 32GB SDHC cards, but each video clip can only be 4GB maximum. If you set your camera to record video at 1280 x 720 you can get 21 minutes on 4GB. At 640 x 480 you can get 1 hour 6 minutes on 4 GB and at 320 x 240 you can get 2 hours and 2 minutes on 4 GB. These minute numbers are what shows up on the menu with an empty 4GB card installed. The 1280 x 720 seems right at 21 minutes. I haven't used the others. The 1280/720 is very good quality. The others are OK for emails & stuff

  18. How long can you record a video? And is the quality good? Plz answer
