Formatting a Memory Card
- Formatting a card returns it to the initial state (when it was purchased).
- Caution: Formatting erases all data, even images that are protected (p.91).
- Always format cards inside the camera. If a card is formatted by a computer it
may not perform normally.
1. Select “FORMAT”and press right;
you will be prompted to select the
media type. Use up or down to
choose which media type to format
and then press either right or the
MENU/SET button.
• If you press left, the setting is invalidated
and you return to the Set-up menu.
2. You will be asked for confirmation.
To execute formatting, select “YES”
with left or right and press the
MENU/SET button.
• If you decide not to format, select “NO”
and press the MENU/SET button.
3. Once formatting starts, the mes-
sage “Now FORMAT…” will
appear.
When formatting is complete, the
camera returns to the Set-up menu
mode.
During formatting be sure not to
open the battery/card cover as
damage to the card may result.
