One other thing to look at while you have the manual out. Some cameras
allow an image to be "locked" or "protected" which marks that image for
protection from being erased. Such a protected image would resist
deleting. A format should get rid of it, but otherwise it must be unlocked
or unprotected before it can be deleted in the normal manner. This can be
a good function when you want to make sure that a photo isn't accidently
deleted before you can get it backed up. But once you do back it up, you
will have to remember to unlock it before trying to delete.
