    HI

    could someone just define this for me it is from my cameras manual

    when using a new memory card or a memory card that has been formatted by a pc be sure to format the card with your digital camera before using it

    I know how to format the card using the camera, but a memory card that has been formatted by a pc doe's this mean that if you transfer some pics to your pc, and then edit a few then transfer them back to your camera, doe's this now mean that the card has been formatted by the pc.

    no. formatting by the pc is same as by camera. until formated, cut & paste or deleted then all pictures are still on the card.
