DELETE

Deleting permanently erases the image. Once deleted, an image cannot be recovered. Care should be taken when using the delete function.

Single, multiple, or all images in a folder can be deleted with the playback-mode menu. Before an image is deleted, a confirmation screen will appear; choosing “Yes” will execute the operation, “No” will cancel the operation. To delete images in other folders, the fold- er must first be selected with the view-folder option in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 116) or the select-folder option in section 2 of the setup menu (p. 137). The delete option has three settings:

9 frames

This frame - The image displayed or highlighted in playback mode will be deleted.

All frames - All unlocked images in the selected folder will be deleted.

Marked frames - To delete multiple images. When this setting is chosen, the frame-selection screen will be displayed. Use the left/right keys of the controller to highlight the first image to be deleted. Pressing the up key will mark the thumbnail with the delete indicator. To deselect an image for dele- tion, highlight it with the yellow border and press the down key; the delete indicator will disappear. Continue until all the images to be deleted are marked. Press the controller to continue (the confir- mation screen will appear), or press the menu button to cancel the operation and return to the play- back menu. On the confirmation screen, highlighting and entering “Yes” will delete the marked images.

The delete function will only erase unlocked images. If an image is locked, it must be unlocked before it can be deleted.
