Format the memory card.
To begin the formatting process, press the
op buttons or turn the 7 dial to choose
[OK], and then press the m button.
When formatting is finished, [Memory card
formatting complete] is displayed. Press the
m button.
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.
Perform low-level formatting.
On the screen in step 2 on p. 175, press the
op buttons or turn the 7 dial to choose
[Low Level Format], and then select this
option (mark with a ) by pressing the qr
buttons.
Press the opqr buttons or turn the 7 dial
to choose [OK], press the m button, and
then follow step 3 on p. 175 to format (low-
level format) the memory card.
• 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
• Low-level formatting takes longer than “Formatting Memory Cards” (p. 175),
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.
