How do i delete pictures from my camera

To delete individual pictures, select the picture in playback mode then press the trash-can button (also marked FUNC).

To delete all pictures, your best bet is to format the card. FixYa is full of people asking how to salvage pictures from cards that haven't been formatted regularly. To format the card, press the MENU button. Use left/right to select Setup (wrench and hammer). Use up/down to select Format and press SET.

If you have all the photos off your camera, you should try reformatting it. In Windows, insert the card into your card reader. Find the removable device in My Computer. Right click, and format it. Use FAT32. Reinsert the card into your camera, and it should work.
