File and Folder Names

Pictures taken with the COOLPIX 2500 are identified by file names that begin with “DSCN” or, in the case of images created with the small picture function ( 82), “SSCN,” followed by a four-digit file number assigned automatically by the camera (e.g., “DSCN0001”). Each file name ends in a three-letter “extension” that identifies the type of picture: “.JPG” for photographs and “.MOV” for movies. Picture files are stored in folders created automatically by the camera and named with a three-digit folder number followed by “NIKON” (e.g., “100NIKON”). The folder name and file number can be viewed in full-screen review and full-frame playback, when they are displayed in the top right corner of the monitor ( 7).
