Formatting a memory card
Format a memory card when you want to erase all the data on the card
or when a message on the LCD monitor instructs you to do so.
c Caution:
❏ An SD memory card must be formatted in your camera. Using an
SD memory card formatted in a different camera may cause reading
or writing data errors. For details, see “Formatting a memory
card” on page 35.
❏ When you format an SD memory card, all the data on the card is
erased, including those locked with the camera’s lock function.
❏ While formatting an SD memory card, do not take the card out of
the camera.
The write protect switch
A memory card is equipped with a write protect switch to prevent
accidental loss of data. When this switch is in the lock position, photos
on a memory card are locked and cannot be deleted or overwritten.
Installing a memory card
1. Make sure that the SD memory access LED is unlit, and then open
the memory card cover.
2. Insert the card all the way into the memory card slot until it clicks.
Note:
When inserting the memory card, make sure the orientation of the memory
card is correct and insert the card until it clicks.
3. Close the memory card cover.
