Ex: when the last number in the source memory is 32 (DSCN0032.JPG) and the last num-
ber in the destination memory is 18 (DSCN0018.JPG), the copied pictures are assigned
numbers starting from DSCN0033.
• When pictures are copied using the [All images] option, all the pictures in the folder are
copied with the same file numbers. New folder numbers are assigned in ascending order
starting from the largest folder number available. If a new folder cannot be created, the
folder is not copied and an error message will be displayed.
