MEMORY CARDS

E-38

Formatting a Memory Card

You can format a memory card to delete all of the data

stored on it.

IMPORTANT!

• Formatting a memory card deletes all images on the

card, even if some or all of the images are protected

(page E-94).

• Data deleted by a memory card format operation can-

not be recovered! Be sure to carefully check and con-

firm that you no longer need the data stored in a

memory card before formatting it.

Press MENU.

Select “SET UP” “Format”.

In response to the confirmation message that

appears, select “Yes” to start formatting the

card.

Memory Card Precautions

• Images cannot be recorded with this camera unless a

memory card is installed in it.

• Be sure to use only CASIO brand CompactFlash cards.

Proper operation with other memory cards is not guaran-

teed.

• Static electricity, electrical noise, and other electrical phe-

nomena can cause corruption or even total loss of the

data stored on a memory card. Because of this, you

should always make backup copies of important images

on other media (magnetic optical disk, floppy diskette,

computer hard disk, etc.).

• Memory card problems can be corrected by reformatting

the memory card (page E-119). Reformatting a memory

card deletes all images stored on the card, but you can

use a computer to copy the images you want to keep to

the computer’s hard disk before reformatting your card. If

you plan to be recording images where you do not have

access to a computer, it is a good idea to take along an

extra memory card or two just in case you experience an

unexpected memory card problem.
