Connecting or disconnecting the AC power adapter while the camera is turned on temporarily interrupts the power supply
to the camera, so that images or movies being shot are not recorded. Failing to turn the camera off first can also result in
damage to the xD-Picture Card or malfunctions during PC connection.
