i didn't realize you were supposed to format them. i just got a canon rebel xti and was so excited to use it that i just stuck the CF card in and went to town! will that hurt my card or camera, or should i back up the images that i have on the card so far and format it? i've only taken about 15 pics so far on it...thanks!
Is it bad if you don't format a compact flash card before use?
If it worked, it was already formatted.
However it is recommended you format it again *with the camera* (as opposed to on the computer), after you back-up your pics to your computer.
