Choosing Recording Media When Shooting

[Record/play] Setting

When you select external media in [Record/play], the [Select location for DCIM folder] screen is displayed. The DCIM folder contains the EOS1D folder, where images are stored.

To create the DCIM folder in the first folder displayed when the external media is opened (that is, the root directory), select the default setting of [/].

To create another parent folder for the DCIM folder, select [Create folder]. A screen is displayed for entering the folder name.

By default, the folder name comprises the current date (last two digits of the year, in addition to the month and day) and numbers representing the order the folder was created, in a range of 01 to 99.

Always use 8 characters for the folder name.

For instructions on entering the folder name, refer to “Virtual Keyboard Operation” (p.27).
