Formatting (initializing) (page 107)

A card must be formatted with this camera:

i After purchasing, when used for the first time, or

i If it was formatted using a personal computer or other device.

The card cannot be formatted if the lock switch is set to the “LOCK” position. Proceed with the format procedure after setting the lock switch to the unlocked position (page 19).

HINT

Caution during formatting

i Do not turn off the power to the camera or eject the card during formatting.

Formatting the card erases the files

i When a storage medium is formatted, all recorded files on the medium are erased. Protected data (page 87) is also erased, so before formatting a card, any data you want to keep should be copied to your personal computer’s hard disk or other storage medium.

When disposing of or transferring the SD card, execute the [DELETE DATA] procedure from the Format Menu

i If a card is reformatted or the data is erased from the card using the camera or a computer, the card’s control data may be merely modified and the data itself may not be completely erased from the card.

i In some cases it may be possible to recover the data from a reformatted card using special software for that purpose. However, if the camera is used to erase data, it will be impossible to recover the data even by the use of data recovery software.

i If you are disposing of a card, it is recommended that you physically destroy it. If you are transferring the card to someone else to use, it is recommended that you use the camera to erase the data, or use commercially available software for erasing card data. Managing data is the responsibility of the user.

Can’t select [DELETE DATA]?

i Use the AC adaptor to power the camera. [DELETE DATA] cannot be selected when the battery is used to power the camera.
