perform any other operation that stores data. Files are grouped by storing them in 
folders. Each file and folder has its own unique name.• For details about how folders are organized in memory, see “Memory Folder  Structure” (page 146).
• You can view folder and file names on y our computer. For details about how file 
names are displayed on the camera’s  monitor screen, see pages 12 and 13.
• The total number of folders and files allowed depends on the image size and  quality, and capacity of the memory card being used for storage.

.Supported Image Files
• Image files shot with this camera
• DCF-compliant image files
This camera may not be able to display an image, even if it is DCF-compliant. When 
displaying an image recorded on another camera, it may take a long time for the 
image to appear on this camera’s monitor screen.
. Built-in Memory and Memory Ca rd Data Handling Precautions
• Whenever copying memory contents to y our computer, you should copy the DCIM 
folder and all of its contents. A good way to keep track of multiple DCIM folders it to 
change their names to dates or something  similar after you copy them to your 
computer. If you later decided to return a  DCIM folder to the camera, however, be 
sure to change its name back to DCIM. The camera is designed to recognize only a 
root file with the name DCIM. Note the camera also will not be able to recognize the 
folders inside the DCIM folder unless t hey have the names they originally had 
when you copied them from the camera to your computer.
• Folders and files must be stored in accordance with the “Memory Folder Structure”  shown on page 146 in order for the camera to be able to recognize them correctly.
• You also can use a PC card adapter or a memory card reader/writer to access  camera files directly from the camera’s memory card.

Specifying the File Name Seri al Number Generation Rule 
(File No.)
Continue Tells the camera to remember the last used file number. A new file will 
be named using the next sequential num
ber, even if files are deleted or 
if a blank memory card is loaded. If a memory card is loaded and that 
card already has files stored on it and the largest sequential number in 
the existing file names is greater  than the largest sequential number 
remembered by the camera, numbering of new files will start from the 
largest sequential number in the memory card file names plus 1.
Reset Restarts the serial number from 0
001 whenever all files are deleted or 
when the memory card is replaced with a blank one. If a memory card 
is loaded and that card already has  files stored on it, numbering of new 
files will start from the largest sequential number in the memory card 
file names plus 1.
