Deleting Multiple Photographs

The DELETE option in the playback menu allows you to:
• delete selected photographs
• delete all the photographs in the current folder
• select a folder for deletion
• delete printer information files created with the PRINT SET

option (see “Preparing Photographs for Printing,” below)

Note that once deleted, photographs can not be recovered; be
sure to back up any photographs you would like to keep.

menu, follow these steps:

If the playback menu does not appear when you press the MENU button,
press the MONITOR button until the LCD monitor comes on. Items can
be highlighted using the zoom buttons (▲▼) and selected using the shutter-
