MANAGING YOUR FILES

Files and Folders

Your camera treats each snapshot, movie, and Voice Recording, as a separate file.

You can delete, protect, and copy files as required.

Files are grouped in folders that are created automatically by the camera.

Files and folders have their own unique names, which are assigned automatically by the camera.

For details about how folders are organized in memory, see “Memory Folder Structure” (page 251).
