another party.
When discarding a memory card, either physically destroy the memory card or use
commercially available data delete software to completely delete the data on the
memory card.
When transferring ownership of a memory card to another party, use commercially
available data deletion software to completely delete the data on it.
Use the format function (page 148) to completely delete the data in built-in memory
before discarding or transferring ownership of the camera.
