FORMATTING COMPACTFLASH CARDS
When a CompactFlash card is formatted, all data on the card is erased.
The formatting function is used to erase all data on a CompactFlash card. Before formatting a card,
copy the data to a computer or storage device. Locking files will not protect them from being deleted
when the card is formatted. Always format the CompactFlash card using the camera; never use a
computer to format a card.

will format the card, choosing “No” will cancel the formatting operation. never remove the card while it
is being formatted. A screen will appear to indicate the card has been formatted; press the central
button of the controller to return to the playback menu.
If the card-not-recognized message appears, the inserted card in the camera may need to be format-
ted. A CompactFlash card used in another camera may need to be formatted before being used. If
the unable-to-use-card message appears, the card is not compatible with the camera and should not
be formatted.
