The formatting function is used to erase all data on a memory card.
Before formatting a memory card, 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 memory card
using the camera; never use a computer to format a card.

When the format option is selected and entered in section 1 of the
playback menu (p. 70), a confirmation screen appears. Choosing
“Yes” formats the card, choosing “No” cancels the formatting opera-
tion. A screen appears to indicate the card has been formatted.
