FORMATTING MEMORY CARDS
The formatting function is used to erase all data on a memory
card. Before formatting, copy the data to a computer or storage
device. Locking images will not protect them from being deleted
when the card is formatted. Always format the card using the cam-
era; never use a computer.
When the format option is selected and entered in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 62), a confir-
mation screen appears. Choosing “Yes” formats the card, choosing “No” cancels the formatting
operation. A message appears to indicate the card has been formatted.
If the unable-to-use-card message appears, the inserted card in the camera may need to be format-
ted. A memory card used in another camera may also have to be formatted before being used.
When a memory card is formatted, all data is erased.
