The Memory Cards
Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards” (A21).
Be sure to observe the precautions in the memory card documentation when
you use the memory card.
Do not affix labels or stickers to the memory card.
Do not format the memory card using a computer.
When a memory card that has been used in another device is used for the first
time, be sure to format it with this camera.
When a new memory card is used, it is recommended to format it with this
camera first.
Formatting permanently deletes all data in the memory card. Be sure to transfer
important pictures to a computer before formatting.
If the error message “Card is not formatted. Format card?” is displayed when you
insert a memory card into this camera, the memory card must be formatted. If
the memory card contains images you wish to keep, select No and save those
images on your computer before formatting the memory card. To format the
card, select Yes and press the k button.
Do not perform the following during formatting, while data is being written to
or deleted from the memory card, or during data transfer to a computer.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in loss of data or damage to the
memory card:
- Open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover to remove the battery or
memory card.
- Turn off the camera
- Disconnect the AC adapter
