Low-Level Formatting Perform low-level formatting in these cases: [Memory card error] is displayed, the camera is not working correctly, card image reading/writing is slower, continuous shooting is slower, or movie recording suddenly stops. Low-level formatting erases all data on a memory card. Before low-level formatting, copy images on the memory card to a computer, or take other steps to back them up. On the screen in step 2 of "Formatting Memory Cards" (=82), press the buttons to choose [Low Level Format], and then press the buttons to select this option. A [ ] icon is displayed. Follow step 3 in "Formatting Memory Cards" (=82) to continue with the formatting process. • Low-level formatting takes longer than "Formatting Memory Cards" (=82), because data is erased from all storage regions of the memory card. • You can cancel low-level formatting in progress by choosing [Stop]. In this case, all data will be erased, but the memory card can be used normally. File Numbering Your shots are automatically numbered in sequential order (0001 - 9999) and saved in folders that store up to 2,000 images each. You can change how the camera assigns file numbers. Choose [File Numbering], and then choose an option. Continuous Auto Reset Images are numbered consecutively (until the 9999th shot is taken/saved) even if you switch memory cards. Image numbering is reset to 0001 if you switch memory cards, or when a new folder is created. • Regardless of the option selected in this setting, shots may be numbered consecutively after the last number of existing images on newly inserted memory cards. To start saving shots from 0001, use an empty (or formatted (=82)) memory card. • Refer to the Software Guide (=21) for information on the card folder structure and image formats.
