Samsung WB500 Delete All Photos

Old-School-Minolta-Rapid-24-35mmI've seen this question being asked in quite a lot of places. How to delete all the photos from a Samsung WB500 Camera (see some test images here). Surely, this is as simple as just formatting the SD card? If that is the case, and people are actually asking how to remove all the images from a WB500's (HZ10W) memory card - here is how to do that. And it's very easy to achieve.

Yes, I know the picture in this post is not a WB500. But it is an old school classic, and I know you'd rather see that then an up-to-date Samsung that you're most probably holding and looking at already.


How To  Delete All Photos From The Samsung WB500 Camera


  • Turn the camera on
  • Press the button in the middle of the circular navigational pad called "Menu - OK".
  • Choose the last option, which is "settings" and looks like a cog with a spanner at the side.
  • Press down on the circular navigational pad and select the first choice, which is Format.
  • Click to the right and you will see the two options appear from the drop down format menu - Yes and No.
  • Pick yes, for yes you want to format (wipe everything). 

Warning: All pictures will be gone forever, so only click yes if you are sure that you want to delete everything. There's no turning back once this is done. Press OK to wipe everything, give it a second or two to complete the operation, and that's it, all done.

What about deleting photographs on the cameras built in memory?
