How can I delete all pics in one action rather than do each individually?

Camera manual give instruction only for deleting one pic at a time.

Some cameras allow you to delete all pictures at once, some allow you to delete "folders" of pictures (like from a certain day, for example). And other only allow you to delete one picture at a time.

If you want to delete everything on your camera, you can always just reformat your card on your camera. If you don't want to format, you can also just put the camera's memory card into a computer. The computer will treat the card as a portable hard drive of sorts, and you can just delete everything with a click of a button.

BB,

To delete multiple images without formatting your card (which will work), you can delete them in "index mode." You can delete all the images in a folder by selecting [All In This Folder] with your up/down button, then press the delete button. You can see the instructions on the bottom right of page two in the bottom of the "Read This First" instructions for your camera. Please let us know if you have any more questions. Good luck and happy shooting.
