Basic Photography

Pictures taken with the COOLPIX SQ are identified by file names that begin with “DSCN” followed by a four-digit file number assigned automatically by the cam- era (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.

When a picture is viewed in the monitor, the file number and extension appear in the top right corner of the display. The identifier is not displayed, but is visible when the picture is transferred to a computer.

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”). Folders can hold up to 200 pictures; if you take a picture when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a new folder will be created by adding one to the current folder number. File numbering starts over from 0001 if a picture is taken when the current folder contains a file numbered 9999. The camera will create a new folder by adding one to the current folder number. The new picture will be num- bered 0001 and stored in the new folder. If the file number reaches 9999 when the card contains a folder numbered 999, no more pictures can be stored on the card, even if sufficient memory remains. Format the current card or insert a new card ( 91).
