When you play back pictures on a PC, they cannot be displayed in the rotated direction unless the OS or software is compatible with Exif. Exif is a file format for still pictures which allows recording information etc. to be added. It was established by “JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association)”.

It may not be possible to rotate pictures that have been recorded with other equipment.

The display is not rotated during Multi Playback.

[Version Disp.]

It is possible to check which version of firmware is on the camera.

[Format]

The built-in memory or card is formatted. Formatting irretrievably deletes all the data so check the data carefully before formatting.

Use a battery with sufficient battery power when formatting. Do not turn the camera off during formatting.

If a card has been inserted, only the card is formatted. To format the built-in memory, remove the card.

If the card has been formatted on a PC or other equipment, format it on the camera again.

It may take longer to format the built-in memory than the card.

If you cannot format, contact the dealer or your nearest Service Centre.
