Hiding the Start-Up Screen If you prefer, you can deactivate display of the start-up screen normally shown when you turn the camera on. ●●Choose [Start-up Image], and then choose [Off]. Formatting Memory Cards Before using a new memory card or a card formatted in another device, you should format the card with this camera. Formatting erases all data on a memory card. Before formatting, copy images on the memory card to a computer, or take other steps to back them up. An Eye-Fi card (=99) contains software on the card itself. Before formatting an Eye-Fi card, install the software on a computer. 1 Access the [Format] screen. ●●Choose [Format], and then press the [ ] button. 2 Choose [OK]. ●●Press the [ ][ ] buttons to choose [Cancel], press the [ ][ ] buttons to choose [OK], and then press the [ ] button. 3 Format the memory card. ●●To begin the formatting process, press the [ ][ ] buttons to choose [OK], and then press the [ ] button. ●●When formatting is finished, [Memory card formatting complete] is displayed. Press the [ ] button. ●● Formatting or erasing data on a memory card only changes file management information on the card and does not erase the data completely. When transferring or disposing of memory cards, take steps to protect personal information if necessary, as by physically destroying cards.
