VIEWING IMAGES ON A COMPUTER

Built-in Memory and Memory Card Precautions

Note that the folder named “DCIM” is the parent (top) folder of all the files in memory. When transferring memory contents to a hard disk, CD-R, MO disk, or other external storage, treat all the contents inside a DCIM folder as a set and always keep them together. You can change the name of the DCIM folder on your computer. Changing the name to a date is a good way to keep track of multiple DCIM folders. However, if you even want to copy the folders back to the camera’s file memory, be sure you change the name of the DCIM folder back to “DCIM” first. The camera does not recognize any folder name other than DCIM.

Memory Folders and files must be stored in accordance with the “Memory Folder Structure” shown on page 206 in order for the camera to be able to recognize them correctly.
