Formatting the CF Card
The CF card must be formatted before it is used in the EOS D30 camera. Also, if you see the
message “

may need to be formatted before it can be used.
1 From the Menu, select [Format].
● Press the
〈
MENU
〉
button.
● Turn the
〈 〉
dial to select [Format].
2 Press the
〈 〉
button.
A message will appear asking you to
confirm that you want to format the CF card.
3 Turn the
〈 〉
dial to select [OK],
then press the
〈 〉
button.
The CF card will be formatted.
● If a CF card from another manufacturer does not operate correctly, it may be
usable after formatting.
● CF cards formatted on other cameras or computers or peripheral devices may
not operate correctly with the EOS D30. In this case, format the card in your EOS
D30 camera.
Formatting a CF card will erase all information on the card, including protected
images. Be sure to carefully review the contents of a CF card before formatting.
