3Formatting the Card

If the card is new or was previously formatted by another camera or personal computer, formatting the card with the camera is recommended.

When the card is formatted, all images and data in the card will be erased. Even protected images will be erased, so make sure there is nothing you need to keep. If necessary, transfer the images to a personal computer, etc., before formatting the card.
