Protecting Images

Protecting an image prevents it from being erased accidentally.

	1 Select [Protect images]. Under the [] tab, select [Protect images], then press <>. The protect setting screen will appear.
	2 Select the image and protect it. Press the <> key to select the image to be protected, then press <>. When an image is protected, the <> icon will appear on the top of the screen. To cancel the image protection, press <> again. The <> icon will disappear. To protect another image, repeat step 2. To exit the image protection, press the <MENU> button. The menu will reappear.

If you format the card, the protected images will also be erased.

• Once an image is protected, it cannot be erased by the camera's erase function. To erase a protected image, you must first cancel the protection.
• If you erase all the images, only the protected images will remain. This is convenient when you want to erase unnecessary images all at once.
