Formatting Memory Cards

Before you use a new memory card or one that has been formatted in other devices, you should format the card with this camera. Formatting (initializing) a memory card erases all data on the memory card. As you cannot retrieve the erased data, exercise adequate caution before formatting the memory card. Before formatting an Eye-Fi card (p. 179), be sure to install the software contained on the card to a computer.
