Do not bend, force, or subject them to shocks or vibration. • Do not attempt to disassemble or alter a CF card. • Moving a CF card rapidly between temperature extremes may cause condensation to form in the card, leading to potential malfunctions. To avoid condensation formation, place the CF card in a sealed plastic bag before moving it into a different temperature zone and allow it to adjust slowly to the new temperature. If condensation forms on the CF card, put it aside until the water droplets have evaporated completely. • Place the CF card in the supplied case for storage. • Do not use or store CF cards in the following types of locations. -Locations subject to dust or sand -Locations subject to high humidity and high temperatures Microdrives are a recording medium with a hard disk. Their merits are a large capacity and a low price per megabyte of capacity. However, they can be more susceptible to vibrations and shocks than CF cards, which use durable flash memories. Please be careful, therefore, not to subject the camera to vibrations or shocks when using a microdrive, especially while recording or playing back. Formatting a CF Card You should always format a new CF card or one from which you wish to erase all images and other data. Please note that formatting (initializing) a CF card erases all data, including protected images and other file types. Please check the contents of the CF card before formatting it. • If the camera does not work properly, the inserted CF card may be malfunctioning. Reformatting the CF card may solve the problem. • When a non-Canon brand CF card is malfunctioning, reformatting it may solve the problem. • CF cards formatted in another camera, computer or peripheral device may not operate correctly. When that happens, reformat the CF card with this camera. If formatting in the camera does not work properly, turn the camera off and reinsert the CF card. Then turn the camera back on and format again. • The capacity of the CF card displayed after formatting will be less than the rated capacity of the CF card. This is not a malfunction of the CF card or camera. 1. Preparing the Camera 19 aTurn the power on (p. 21). bPress the MENU button, and then the .. arrow on the omni selector.
