Image protect

 

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 (p.124), only the protected images will 
remain. This is convenient when you want to erase unnecessary images 
all at once.
