Managing Image Files (p. 110) About File and Folder Numbers Images are assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900, and folders are assigned folder numbers from 100 to 998 (Folder numbers cannot contain 99 in the last two digits).

However, since images shot in Continuous mode and Stitch Assist mode are always saved into the same folder, a folder may contain more than 100 images. The number of images may also exceed 100 if a folder contains images copied from a computer or images shot with other cameras. Please note, however, that the images in folders containing 2001 or more images cannot be played back in this camera. How to Adjust the Exposure (p. 78) This camera automatically adjusts the exposure to shoot images with the optimal brightness. However, recorded images may sometimes be brighter or darker than the actual image depending on the shooting conditions. If this happens, adjust the exposure compensation manually (p. 78). Underexposure The whole recorded image is dark, which makes white elements of the image appear gray. Shooting bright subjects or in backlit conditions may cause the image to be underexposed. Adjust the exposure compensation towards the + end. Optimal Exposure Appendix 155

Managing Image Files (p. 110)
About File and Folder Numbers
Images are assigned file numbers from 0001 to
9900, and folders are assigned folder numbers from
100 to 998 (Folder numbers cannot contain 99 in the
last two digits).
Folder File Capacity
Each folder usually contains up to 100 images.
However, since images shot in Continuous mode and
Stitch Assist mode are always saved into the same
folder, a folder may contain more than 100 images.
The number of images may also exceed 100 if a
folder contains images copied from a computer or
images shot with other cameras.

How to Adjust the Exposure (p. 78)
This camera automatically adjusts the exposure to
shoot images with the optimal brightness. However,
recorded images may sometimes be brighter or
darker than the actual image depending on the
shooting conditions. If this happens, adjust the
exposure compensation manually (p. 78).
Underexposure
The whole recorded image is
dark, which makes white
elements of the image appear
gray. Shooting bright subjects or
in backlit conditions may cause
the image to be underexposed. Adjust the exposure
compensation towards the + end.
