File Naming Conventions in Internal Memory
m
The camera’s internal memory contains your stored pictures and videos,
with no folders or subfolders.
m
When you format the internal memory, the numbering sequence restarts at
DCP_0001.
m
When the internal memory contains a picture named DCP_9999, the next
picture taken is named with the lowest unused number. For example, if the
internal memory contains DCP_0002, DCP_0004, and DCP_9999, the next
picture taken is named DCP_0003.
File Naming Conventions After a Copy
Your camera maintains separate numbering sequences for the files in the
internal memory, and for the files on the Picture Card. When you copy a picture
or video, it is renumbered sequentially in the new location.
For example, in the Before Copy list below, the two files in the internal memory
are copied to the Picture Card. After Copy, the copied files are renumbered on
the Picture Card as DCP_0004 and DCP_0005. Additionally, if DCP_0005 is
deleted, the next file copied to the Picture Card is named DCP_0006. In the
internal memory, the original files and their numbers are unchanged.
