I have a Canon and there is a function under menu that you can format or reformat your card when it's new or after you clear your photos. Not sure if all cameras have this or not. It was a new thing to me with my new camera. If the old one had it I never noticed. Hope this helps!
Yeah, both the "formating" & "freeze framing" are through the camera not the computer!!! I've got a really cute mini video of Jeremy McComb where a friend was taking it for me...Neither of us realized it was still on video...
