Folders can hold up to 200 pictures; if a picture is taken when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a new folder will be created by adding one to the current folder number. If a picture is taken when the current folder contains a picture numbered 9999, a new folder will be created and file numbering will begin again from 0001. If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no further pictures can be taken until the memory card or internal memory is formatted ( 78) or a new memory card is inserted. When a picture is viewed on the camera, the file number and extension appear in the top right corner of the display. The identifier is not displayed, but is visible when the picture is transferred to a computer. Technical Notes 92

Image File and Folder Names
On the memory card, pictures are identified by file names with three parts: a four let-
ter identifier, a four-digit file number assigned automatically by the camera in ascend-
ing order, and a three-letter extension (e.g., “DSCN0001.JPG”).
Movies are recorded
as QuickTime movie files and can be played back on a computer after transfer.

Pictures are stored in folders named with a three-digit folder number followed by a
five-character identifier: “P_” plus a three-digit sequence number for pictures taken
using panorama assist (e.g, “101P_001”;
32), “INTVL” for interval timer photog-
raphy (e.g, “101INTVL”;
62), “SOUND” for voice recordings (e.g, “101SOUND”;
34), and “NIKON” for all other pictures (e.g, “100NIKON”).
Folders can hold up
to 200 pictures; if a picture is taken when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a
new folder will be created by adding one to the current folder number.
If a picture
is taken when the current folder contains a picture numbered 9999, a new folder
will be created and file numbering will begin again from 0001.
If the current folder
is numbered 999 and contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no further
pictures can be taken until the memory card or internal memory is formatted (
78)
or a new memory card is inserted.
When a picture is viewed on the camera, the file number and extension appear in the
top right corner of the display.
The identifier is not displayed, but is visible when the
picture is transferred to a computer.
