FORMAT

When a memory card is formatted, all data on the card is erased.

The formatting function in section 1 of the playback menu is used to erase all data on a memory card. Before formatting a card, copy the data to a computer or storage device. Locking files will not protect them from being deleted when the card is formatted. Always format the memory card using the camera; never use a computer to format a card.

When the format option is selected and entered, a confirmation screen appears. Choosing “Yes” formats the card, choosing “No” cancels the operation. Never remove the card while it is being formatted. A screen appears to indicate the card has been formatted.

VIEW FOLDER

Only the images in the folders specified with the view-folder option in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 82) can be viewed or edited in playback. Two options are available:

All folders - to view and edit all images on the memory card.

Single folder - to view and edit images in a specific folder. The folder is selected in the folder-name option below the view-folder option.
