Disposal
When you delete movies or initialize a memory card, only the file allocation table is altered and stored
data is not physically erased. When you dispose of a memory card or give either to another person,
initialize it using the [Complete Initialization] option (
A
36). Fill it up with unimportant recordings, and
then initialize it again using the same option. This makes recovering the original recordings very
difficult.
