Memory Card Data

Images recorded with this camera and other data are stored on the memory card using DCF (Design rule for Camera File system) protocol. DCF protocol is designed to make it easier to exchange image and other data between digital cameras and other devices.

DCF Protocol

DCF devices (digital cameras, printers, etc.) can exchange images with each other. DCF protocol defines the format for image file data and the directory structure for the memory card, so images can be viewed using another manufacturer’s DCF camera or printed on a DCF printer. In addition to sup- port for the DCF protocol, your digital camera also uses dates in image folder names and image file names, which helps to make data management easier.
