FORMATTING THE MEMORY CARD

It is not normally necessary to format memory cards that have

already been used. However, if a card that has yet to be formatted

is inserted for the ﬁrst time, it must be formatted. In such cases the

Format sub-menu appears automatically.

Nevertheless, it is recommended that the memory card be

reformatted occasionally, as a certain amount of residual data

(information accompanying pictures) can take up memory

capacity.

Setting the function

Select

Format

in the menu and

then choose the desired function in the sub-menu

Notes:

• Formatting does not cause the data on the card to be irretrie-

vably lost. Only the directory is deleted, which means that the

existing ﬁles are no longer directly accessible. The data can be

accessed again under certain circumstances using appropriate

software.

Only the data that is subsequently overwritten by saving new

data is actually permanently deleted.

We therefore recommend that you get into the habit of

transferring all your pictures to a secure mass storage medium,

e.g. the hard drive on your computer, as soon as possible.

• Do not turn the camera oﬀ while the memory card is being

formatted.

• If the memory card has been formatted in another device, such

as a computer, you should reformat it in the camera.

• If the memory card cannot be formatted, you should ask your

dealer or the Leica Product Support (for address, see page 259)

for advice.

• When formatting the memory card, even protected pictures are

deleted.
