Formatting or erasing data on a memory card only changes file

management information on the card and does not erase the data

completely. When transferring or disposing of memory cards, take

steps to protect personal information if necessary, as by physically

destroying cards.

The total card capacity indicated on the formatting screen may be less than

the advertised capacity.

Low-Level Formatting

Perform low-level formatting in these cases: [Memory card error] is

displayed, the camera is not working correctly, card image reading/writing is

slower, continuous shooting is slower, or movie recording suddenly stops.

Low-level formatting erases all data on a memory card. Before low-level

formatting, copy images on the memory card to a computer, or take other

steps to back them up.

On the screen in step 2 of “Formatting

Memory Cards” (

<

Format], and then press the <

Follow steps 2 – 3 in “Formatting Memory

Cards” (

=

114) to continue with the

formatting process.

Low-level formatting takes longer than Formatting Memory Cards (

=

113),

because data is erased from all storage regions of the memory card.

You can cancel low-level formatting in progress by choosing [Stop]. In this

case, all data will be erased, but the memory card can be used normally.
