Memory Data

Images recorded with this camera and other data are stored in memory using DCF (Design Rule for Camera File System) protocol. DCF protocol is designed to make it easier to ex- change 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 camera for- mat for image file data and the directory structure for camera memory, so images can be viewed using another manufacturer’s DCF camera or printed on a DCF printer.
