Low Level Memory Card Formatting
Perform low level formatting when [Memory card error] appears, the camera
does not operate properly, you think that the recording/reading speed of a
memory card has dropped, the continuous shooting speed slows down, or
recording suddenly stops while shooting a movie. As you cannot retrieve the
erased data, exercise adequate caution before formatting the memory card.
Low level formatting may take longer than standard formatting (p. 23),
since all recorded data is erased.
You can stop a low level format of a memory card by choosing [Stop].
When stopping low level formatting, the data will be erased but the
memory card can be used without problem.
