Formatting Memory Cards - Canon Powershot S100 Getting Started

Formatting Memory Cards

Before you use a new memory card or one that has been formatted in other
devices, you should format the card with this camera.
Formatting (initializing) a memory card erases all data on the memory card.
As you cannot retrieve the erased data, exercise adequate caution before
formatting the memory card.
Before formatting an Eye-Fi card (see Camera User Guide), be sure to install
the software contained on the card to a computer.
