Copying Files from One Memory Card to Another

When you have two memory cards installed in the camera, you can use the Copy Image(s) option on the Playback menu to copy pictures from one card to the other. Follow these steps:

1. On the Playback menu, choose Copy Image(s) and press OK.
2. Highlight Select Source and press the Multi Selector right.

   You see a screen listing both memory cards (Slot 1 and Slot 2).

5. Highlight the folder that contains your pictures and press the Multi Selector right.

   You see a screen with three options: Select All Images, Select Protected Images, and Deselect All.
