Note :
When the photo data is transferred into the
HDPS-M10 and the LCD displays "Completed"
it is advisable to wait for a little while so that the
processed is complete before pulling out the CF
or the MS card. This unit has no indication as to
when we can pull the card out safely. So wait
for about 15 seconds to be sure.

 Note :  * The time is measured when the LCD displayed "Completed".
