Folder Configuration when the Card is used 
with a PC

When a Card with data recorded on it is inserted 
into a personal computer, folders will be 
displayed as in the figure.

SD Memory Card:

MultiMediaCard:

[100CDPFP]:

The images (IMGA0001.JPG, 
etc.) in this folder are recorded in 
the JPEG format.

[MISC]:

Files in which DPOF Data has 
been set to the image can be 
found here.

[TITLE]:

This contains the data of the 
original titles (USR00001.TTL, 
etc.).

[DCIM], [IM01CDPF], [PRIVATE], [VTF], etc. 
are necessary items in the folder structure. 
They have nothing to do with actual operations.

In the Card Recording Mode, the Movie Camera 
automatically saves file numbers 
(IMGA0001.JPG, etc.) along with the images. 
The file numbers are recorded with each image 
as consecutive numbers.

When using software without an indication 
function, indication data, such as date, are not 
displayed. Depending on the software in use, 
the date and the time may not be displayed 
correctly.

The memory capacity indicated on the SD 
Memory Card label corresponds to the total 
amount of the capacity to protect and manage 
the copyright and of the capacity available as a 
conventional memory for a Movie Camera, 
Personal Computer or others.
Capacity that can be used as conventional
