Appendix

. Using a Memory Card

• SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards, and SDXC

memory cards have a write protect switch. Use the

switch when you need to guard against accidentally

deleting data. Note, however, if you write protect an

SD memory card you must then turn write protection

off whenever you want to record to it, format it, or

delete any of its images.

• If a memory card starts to behave abnormally during

image playback, you can restore normal operation by reformatting it (page 164).

However, it is recommended that you always take along multiple memory cards

whenever using the camera far away from the home or office.

• As you record data to and delete data from a memory card a number of times, it

loses its ability to retain data. Because of this, periodic re-formatting of a memory

card is recommended.

• Electrostatic charge, electrical noise, and other phenomena can cause data to

become corrupted or even lost. Make sure that you always back up important data

on other media (CD-R, CD-RW, hard disk, etc.)

. Discarding or Transferring Ownership of a Memory Card or the

Camera

The format and delete functions of the camera do not actually delete files from the

memory card. The original data remains on the card. Note that responsibility for the

data on a memory card lies with you. The following procedures are recommended

whenever you discard a memory card or the camera, or if you transfer ownership to

another party.

• When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use

commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the

memory card.

• When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially

available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it.

Use the format function (page 164) to completely delete the data in built-in memory

before discarding or transferring ownership of the camera.
