Formatting a CF card will erase all information on the card, including protected images. Be sure to carefully review the contents of a CF card before formatting.

Once an image is protected, it cannot be removed by the camera’s Erase function. To erase a protected image, you must first remove the protection.

If you protect the images you need and erase all the images at once (→108), all non-protected images will be erased. This is handy when you want to erase all the images you do not need at once.
