Delete

Choose this menu entry and you’ll be given three choices: Selected, Select Date, and All. If you choose All, then all the pictures in the folder currently selected for playback (as described next) will be removed. When two memory cards are in the camera and have photos, you can choose which card to use to select images for removal. To delete only some pictures from a folder, choose Selected; you’ll see an image selection screen like the one shown in Figure 8.2. Then, follow these instructions:

1.Use the multi selector cursor keys to scroll among the available images.

2.When you highlight an image you think you might like to delete, press the Playback button to temporarily enlarge that image so you can evaluate it further. When you release the button, the selection screen returns. To examine images on a card in the other slot, press and hold the BKT button and press the multi selector up button.

3.To mark an image for deletion, press the Zoom In/Thumbnail button (not the Trash button). A trash can icon will appear overlaid on that image’s thumbnail. To unmark an image, press the Zoom In/Thumbnail button again.

4.When you’ve finished marking images to delete, press OK. A final screen will appear asking you to confirm the removal of the image(s). Choose Yes to delete the image(s) or No to cancel deletion, and then press OK. If you selected Yes, then you’ll return to the Playback menu; if you chose No, you’ll be taken back to the selection screen to mark/unmark images.

5.To back out of the selection screen, press the MENU button.

In the main Delete screen you can also choose Select Date. Highlight any of the avail- able dates that have pictures, and press the multi selector right button to add a check
