info.txt

When pictures are recorded with On selected for
info.txt, information about each image is added to
an independent text fi le (“info.txt”) stored in the same
folder as the picture. When the contents of the mem-
ory card are viewed on a computer, this fi le can be read
with a text browser such as Notepad or SimpleText. If
Off (the default option) is selected, photo information will no longer be re-
corded to the info.txt fi le. Information about pictures recorded when Off is
selected can still be viewed in the photo information display (

58).
