You should always format a new memory card or one from which
you wish to erase all images and other data.
Low Level Format
You should select the [Low Level Format] option if you
suspect the read/write speed of a memory card has dropped.
A low level format may require 2 to 3 minutes with some
memory cards.
Formatting Memory Cards
Please note that formatting (initializing) a memory card

types.
