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.

• Low-level formatting takes longer than “Formatting Memory Cards”
( = 149 ), 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.
