Formatting Memory Cards
Low Leve! Format
Perform low level formatting when you think that the recording/reading
speed of a memory card has dropped.
Follow Step 1-2 on the previous page to
display the [Format] screen.
Press the Av buttons to select [Low
Level Format], then use the 4_ buttons to
display *4".
Press the Av_, buttons to select [OK],
then press the @ button.
Low level formatting starts.
The supplied memory card has already been formatted.
When the "Memory card error" message appears, or when the camera does not
work correctly, formatting the memory card may solve the problem. Copy the
images from the memory card to a computer or other device before formatting.
