Hi All

formatted a card as in title and it took a heck of a lot longer than I expected. I'd guesstimate roughly 10 -15 seconds - is this about right ?

My Pentax MX-1 did the same card in around 3 -4 seconds

Thanks
 
ha ha ... it also seems to stop at one point as thought it's thinking "hmmm can I be bothered ?" ... then it goes off again "ah go on then" .. not exprienced it before.

It's quite a camera - have ordered one of the books so looking forward to getting that to get to know it better .
