MEMORY CARDS
Memory Card Folder Precautions
• The camera automatically creates folders (directories) on
the memory card and assigns them names based on dates
(month and day). Any image you record is automatically
stored into the folder that corresponds to the date it is re-
corded.
• Up to 900 folders can be created on a single card.
The following shows a typical folder name.
• Formatting is recommended for any memory card that you
suspect contains corrupted image data (due to a DE-
CODE ERROR, strange image colors, malformed images)
or newly purchased memory cards.
• Before starting a format operation, load a full set of new
batteries (alkaline or lithium) into the camera or connect
the AC adaptor to power the camera. Interruption of cam-
era power during the format operation results in improper
formatting, making it impossible to use the memory card.
• Up to 250 image files can be stored in each folder. The
following shows a typical file name.
• When you try to save the 251st image to a folder, the cam-
era automatically creates a new folder and store the image
there.
• The above maximum number of files and folders are abso-
lute maximums. The actual number of folders and files may
be less due to memory card capacity and the size of each
image.
• Panorama images are divided into multiple images and
stored on the memory card.
• See “USING CompactFlash CARDS WITH YOUR COM-
PUTER” on page E-103 for information about how files and
folders are organized.
