jNotes on Copying Pictures
• If there is not enough space in the memory or on the memory card to receive the copy, an 
error message will be displayed. Delete unwanted pictures or insert a new memory card (if 
using a memory card) before trying again.
• The file format of images that can be copied is JPEG, AVI, or WAV.
• Pictures taken with another make of camera or that have been modified on a computer 
cannot be copied.
k[Memory contains no images.] Message
If there are no pictures stored on the memory card when playback mode is applied, the 
message, [Memory contains no images.], will be displayed. Press m to display the copy 
option screen, and copy the pictures stored in the camera’s internal memory to the memory 
card.
kFile Names of Copied Pictures 
• When pictures are copied using the [Selected images] option, the newly copied pictures are 
numbered consecutively from the largest number existing between the two memory sources.
Ex: when the last number in the source memory is 32 (DSCN0032.JPG) and the last 
number 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.
kCopies
Edited copies have the same protection marking (c99) as the original but are not marked for 
printing (c83).
