5.0
Owner's of the Leica Digital Camera 18450 gave it a score of 5.0 out of 5. Here's how the scores stacked up:
FORMATTING THE MEMORY CARD
Normally, it is not necessary to format (initialize) a memory card that has
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.
Nonetheless, we recommend formatting the memory card from time to time,
as certain residual quantities of data (subsidiary information) can take up some
of the memory capacity.
In the menu, select
Format
(3.32), and in the submenu, confirm or reject the
formatting process.
Notes:
• Simple formatting does not irretrievably delete the data on the card. It
merely deletes the directory, which means that the existing data is no lon-
ger directly accessible. The data can be accessed again using appropriate
software.
Only the data that is then overwritten by saving new data is actually com-
pletely deleted.
Nevertheless, you should make a habit of transferring all your pictures onto a
secure bulk storage medium, e.g. the hard drive on your computer, as soon
as possible.
• Do not switch o the Leica X2 while the memory card is being formatted.
• If the memory card has been formatted in another device, such as a com-
puter, you should reformat it in the Leica X2.
• If the memory card cannot be formatted, you should ask your dealer or con-
tact the Leica Information Service (address, see p. 160) for advice.
• Even protected pictures (see p. 146) are deleted when formatting the
memory card.
• If no memory card is inserted, the internal memory will be formatted.
