• If you copy picture data from the built-in
memory to a card, the screen
automatically returns to the playback
screen when all the pictures are copied.
• If you copy picture data from the built-in
memory to a card, we recommend using a
card which has more free space than the
built-in memory (about 13 MB).
• It may take time to copy the picture data.
• Only pictures recorded with a Panasonic
digital camera (LUMIX) will be copied. (Even if
the pictures were recorded with a Panasonic
digital camera, you may not be able to copy
them if they were edited with a PC.)
• DPOF settings on the original picture data
will not be copied. Set the DPOF settings
again after copying is finished. (P98)
• If a picture with the same name as the
picture to be copied exists in the copy
destination, the picture will not be copied.
• If you copy picture data from the built-in memory to
a card which does not have sufficient free space,
the picture data will only be copied halfway.
• You can also use the joystick for these
operations.

• If you press [MENU/SET] while formatting
the built-in memory, the formatting will

• Once the card is formatted, all data
including protected images are
irretrievably erased. Please confirm that
all data is transferred to your PC before
proceeding with format function.
• If the card has been formatted on a PC or
other equipment, format it on the camera
again.
• When you format the card, use a battery
with sufficient battery power (P13) or AC
adaptor (DMW-AC5; optional).
• During formatting, do not turn the camera
off.
• It may take longer to format the built-in
memory than the card. (Max. about 15
sec.)
• Sliding the Write-Protect switch of the SD
Memory Card or the SDHC Memory Card
to [LOCK] prevents formatting. (P17)
