Interesting...
I format my cards ONCE when I get them, just for kicks & giggles. (My cameras will automatically do what they need to do to the card to use it, formatted or not). Been using the same cards for over 12 years, no problems.
But many people like to format prior to each use. Makes them feel confident about the card I suppose.
Oh, I delete the image files on the cards via the computer also.
Everyone has a system that works for them. To each his/her own.I have 16 years of 100% success. Regular formatting works for me but not for everyone. I personally don’t change what works.
