File Naming Conventions in Internal Memory

µThe camera’s internal memory contains your stored pictures and videos, with no folders or subfolders.

µWhen you format the internal memory, the numbering sequence restarts at DCP_0001.

µWhen the internal memory contains a picture named DCP_9999, the next picture taken is named with the lowest unused number. For example, if the internal memory contains DCP_0002, DCP_0004, and DCP_9999, the next picture taken is named DCP_0003.

File Naming Conventions After a Copy

Your camera maintains separate numbering sequences for the files in the internal memory, and for the files on the Picture Card. When you copy a picture or video, it is renumbered sequentially in the new location.

For example, in the Before Copy list below, the two files in the internal memory are copied to the Picture Card. After Copy, the copied files are renumbered on the Picture Card as DCP_0004 and DCP_0005. Additionally, if DCP_0005 is deleted, the next file copied to the Picture Card is named DCP_0006. In the internal memory, the original files and their numbers are unchanged.
