Folder name
All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Folder names
come in two formats: standard and date.
Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is named
100MLT09. The first three digits are the folder’s serial number, which will increase
by one each time a new folder is created. The next three letters refer to Minolta,
and the last two numbers indicate the camera used; 09 indicates a DiMAGE X.
A date folder name also starts with the three digit serial number and is followed
by one register for the year, two registers for the month, and two registers for the
day: 100YMMDD. The folder 10120412 was created in 2002 on April 12th.
With the date folder format selected, when an image is recorded a new folder
with the day’s date will be created. All images recorded that day will be placed in
that folder. Images recorded on a different day will be placed in a new folder with
the corresponding date. When a new folder is created, the serial number in the
image-file name is reset to 0001. For more information on folder organization and
file names, see page 72.
