Folders
A folder can contain up to 9999 images (file number 0001–9999). When a
folder becomes full, a new folder with the folder number increased by one
is created automatically. Also, if manual reset (p.369) is executed, a new
folder will be created automatically. Folders numbered from 100 to 999 can
be created.
Creating Folders with a Computer
With the card open on the screen, create a new folder named “ DCIM ”. Open
the DCIM folder and create as many folders as necessary to save and
organize your images. The folder name must follow the format “ 100ABC_D ”.
The first three digits are always the folder number from 100 to 999. The last
five characters can be any combination of upper- and lower-case letters
from A to Z, numerals, and the underscore “_”. The space cannot be used.
Also note that two folder names cannot share the same three-digit folder
number (for example, “100ABC_D” and “100W_XYZ”) even if the remaining
five characters in each name are different.
