CAUTION

Caution during reformatting

i Please do not turn off the camera or insert/remove the card while the card

is being formatted.

Reformatting erases the data

i When the card or internal memory is initialized, all the recorded data is

erased. Protected data is also erased, so before reformatting a card, any

data you want to keep should be copied to your personal computer’s hard

disk or other storage medium.

Caution regarding disposing/transferring the card (recovering data from

a reformatted card)

i If a card is reformatted or the data is erased from the card using the

camera or a computer, the card’s control data may be merely modified and

the data itself may not be completely erased from the card.

i In some cases it may be possible to recover the data from a reformatted

card using special software for that purpose. However, if the camera is

used to execute a full format, it will be impossible to recover the data even

by the use of data recovery software.

i If you are disposing of a card, it is recommended that you physically

destroy it. If you are transferring the card to someone else to use, it is

recommended that you use the camera’s full format function to reformat

the card, or use commercially available software for erasing card data.

Managing data is the responsibility of the user.

HINT

To cancel reformatting
