Initializing the Memory Card

Initialize new memory cards when you use
them for the first time. You may also
choose to initialize a memory card to
erase all the files in contains. The regular
initialization option [INITIALIZE] will clear
the file allocation table but will not
physically erase the stored data. If you
need to completely erase all the data,
select instead the complete initialization
option [COMPL.INIT.].
IMPORTANT
Initializing the memory card will erase all still
images, even the protected ones. The original
still images cannot be recovered.
When you feel the time it takes to record on or
read from the memory card has become too
long, we recommend you select the complete
initialization.
The complete initialization may take a few
minutes, depending on the capacity of the
memory card.
