Picture File Naming Conventions
The camera maintain s separate and seq uential numbering s equences for the
pictures in both the internal memory an d on an MMC/SD ca rd. Pictures are
named DCP_nnnn.JPG, and are numbered in the order in which they are
taken. The first picture is named DCP_0001.JPG; the highest number allowed
is DCP_9999.JPG.

File Naming Conventions on an MMC/SD Card

mWhen an MMC/SD card contains a picture named DCP_9999.JPG in the
\DCIM\100K3215 folder, subsequent pictures appear in a new folder
(\DCIM\101K3215), beginning with picture DCP_0001.JPG.
mEven if you transfer pictures to the co mputer or delete p ictures from the
camera, the camera contin ues to use consecutive numb ers for all
subsequent pictures. For example, if the last picture taken was
DCP_0007.JPG and you delete it, the next picture you take is named
DCP_0008.JPG.
mWhen you insert a different MMC/SD card into your camera, the next
picture number is defined by incrementing the higher of the last picture
taken by the camer a, or the highest ex isting picture nu mber in the folder.
mIf you use the MMC/SD card in a camera other than the DX3215 camera,
and that camera manufactu rer adheres to this file structur e standard, the
\DCIM folder conta ins a folder named b y that camera. For more
information, refer to the documentation that accompanied that camera.

File Naming Conventions in Interna l Memory

mWhen the internal memo ry contains a picture nam ed DCP_9999.JPG in the
\DCIM\100K3215 folder, subsequent pictures appear in a new folder
(\DCIM\101K3215), beginning with picture DCP_0001.JPG.
mWhen you format the int ernal memory, the numberi ng sequence restarts a t
DCP_0001.JPG.
