This function enables you to format a CF card
for use with the camera. If the camera ceases
to operate correctly, a corrupted CF card may
be the cause. Solve the problem by selecting
[Format] from the Setup menu to reformat the
CF card.
• Images shot in Continuous or Stitch
Assist mode are always saved into the
same folder, creating the potential for
more than 100 images to be contained
in a single folder.
• Whenever the battery is removed from
the camera, the last used folder is
closed and subsequent images are saved
into a new folder.
• Please note that formatting a CF card
erases all data from the card, not just
the images.
• After the CF card is reformatted,
checking and fixing it with a computer
utility such as scandisk.exe, is highly
recommended.
