About Small Picture

Once created, copies are independent of the original: deleting a copy has no effect on the original, deleting the original no effect on the copy. Copies are stored on the memory card as independent files with names of the form “SSCNnnnn.JPG,” where “nnnn” is a four-digit number assigned automatically by the camera. Print and protect attributes for copies must be set separately from the originals.

When displayed in full-screen playback, copies will occupy roughly one-quarter of the monitor and are surrounded by a gray frame. In thumbnail playback, copies are indicated by a gray border. Copies can not be viewed using playback
