A Formatting Memory Cards
If this is the first time the memory card will be used in the

select Format memory card in the setup menu and follow

that this permanently deletes any data the card may contain.
Be sure to copy any photographs and other data you wish to
keep to a computer before proceeding.
D Memory Cards
• Memory cards may be hot after use.
Observe due caution when removing memory cards
from the camera.
• Turn the power off before inserting or removing memory cards.
Do not remove memory

during formatting or while data are being recorded, deleted, or copied to a computer.
Failure to observe these precautions could result in loss of data or in damage to the
camera or card.
• Do not touch the card terminals with your fingers or metal objects.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject to strong physical shocks.

A The Write Protect Switch
SD memory cards are equipped with a write protect switch to
prevent accidental loss of data.
When this switch is in the

photos can not be deleted or recorded (a beep will sound if
you attempt to release the shutter).
To unlock the memory
card, slide the switch to the “write” position.
