When a memory card is formatted, all data on
The formatting function is used to erase all data on a memory card.
Before formatting a memory card, copy the data to a computer or
storage device. Locking images will not protect them from being
deleted when the card is formatted. Always format the memory card
using the camera; never use a computer to format a card.
When the format option is selected and entered in section 1 of the
playback menu (p. 70), a confirmation screen appears. Choosing
"Yes" formats the card, choosing "No" cancels the formatting opera-
tion. A screen appears to indicate the card has been formatted.
A memory card used in another camera may have to be formatted before being used. If the unable-
to-use-card message appears, the card should be formatted with the camera. If the card-error mes-
sage appears, press the central button of the controller to close the window; check the Minolta web
site for the latest compatibility information:
