LAYBACK MODE
Single, multiple, or all files can be locked. A locked file cannot be deleted by either the playback-
mode menu functions or the QV/Delete button. Important images and audio recordings should be
locked. The lock function is in the basic section of the playback menu (p. 82). The lock option has four
settings:
This frame – The file displayed or highlighted in playback mode will be locked.
All frames – All files on the memory card will be locked.
Marked frames – To lock or unlock multiple files. When this setting is chosen, the frame-selection
screen will be displayed. Use the left/right keys of the controller to highlight the file to be locked.
Pressing the up key will mark the file with the key icon. To unlock a file, highlight it with the yellow
border and press the down key; the key icon will disappear. Continue until all the files to be locked
are marked. Press the central button of the controller to lock the marked thumbnails, or press the
menu button to cancel the operation and return to the playback menu.
Unlock frames – All files on the memory card will be unlocked.
Locking a file will protect it from a delete function. However, the formatting function (p. 98) will erase
all files on a memory card whether locked or not.
