[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 442764, member: 13090"] Well you edited your post with the tiny tidbit that doing a proper format on the computer checks for, and attempts to correct, bad sectors on the media which is the whole point of my saying that "formatting" in-camera, which does NOT identify or correct bad sectors on the media, is NOT the same thing as doing a full-format on the computer. One of these formatting protocols identifies and potentially corrects bad sectors, the other does not. That seems to me to be a relatively important distinction to make here. I also don't see why bad sectors are any more, or less, important on specific media types since the final outcome, practically speaking, is the same. Also, the DCIM/D3200 folders created by turning on the camera are just that: [I]folders[/I] (not files). That's also an important distinction to make. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"]....[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
