DATA MANAGEMENT
DATA STRUCTURE ON THE MEMORY CARD
FOLDER STRUCTURE
The files (= pictures) on the memory cards are saved in automatically
generated folders. The first three characters signify the folder number
(numerals), the last five the folder name (letters). You can change the
numbers and the letters when you create a new folder. By default, the first
folder is named "100LEICA", the second "101LEICA", etc. A folder will
always be created with the next available number; you can have max. 999
folders.
FILE STRUCTURE
The file names in these folders consist of eleven characters. By default,
the first file is named "L1000001.XXX", the second "L1000002.XXX", etc.
"L" stands for the camera brand; you can change the next three
characters at any time – numerals or letters can be used. The second
group of numbers is the file number: "XXX" stands for the file format (DNG
or JPG). If the folder currently in use contains file number 9999, then a
new folder is created, in which the file numbering begins at 0001 again.
Notes
• When using memory cards that were not formatted with this camera,
the file numbering will begin with 0001 again. Should the memory card
already contain a file with a number higher than the last number
assigned by the camera, then numbering will be continued from the
relevantly highest number on that card.
• A relevant message will be displayed on the LCD panel once folder
number 999 and file number 9999 are reached, and all numbering
must be reset.
