Image/Sound File and Folder Names
Pictures, movies, voice memos, and voice recordings are assigned file names
as follows:
• Files are stored in folders named with a 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”; c 40), “INTVL” for inter-
val timer photography (e.g., “101INTVL”; c 89), “SOUND” for voice
recordings (e.g., “101SOUND”; c 65), and “NIKON” for all other pictures
(e.g., “100NIKON”). When the number of files within a folder reaches
9999, a new folder will be created. File numbers will be assigned automat-
ically starting with “0001”.
• Files copied using [Copy] > [Selected images] or [Copy sound files] >
[Selected files] are copied to the current folder, where they are assigned
new file numbers in ascending order starting from the largest file number
in memory. [Copy] > [All images] and [Copy sound files] > [Copy all files]
copy all folders from the source medium; file names do not change but
new folder numbers are assigned in ascending order starting from the
largest folder number on the destination medium (c 69, 99).
• 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 is
numbered 999 and contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no
further pictures can be taken until the medium is formatted (c 110) or a
new memory card inserted.
