This allows the creation of new folders. The folder-name option in section 2 of the setup menu must be set to standard form in order to use the new-folder function.

Once the name is typed in and the enter button on the keyboard is highlighted and entered, the folder will be created and the name will be listed in the select-folder option.

Date/Time set

Every folder name begins with a three digit index number. When the electronic keyboard activates, three digits will be displayed in the register. This number cannot be changed. Every time a new fold- er is created, the folder number will increase automatically by one greater than the highest folder number on the memory card. A five-character folder name must be entered after the number; only capital letters, numbers, and the underbar can be used. To cancel the electronic-keyboard display without creating a new folder, press the menu button.

Date and Time Setup

It is important to accurately set the clock. When a still image or a movie clip is recorded, the date and time of the recording are saved with the image and are displayed during playback or can be read with the DiMAGE Viewer software included on the CD-ROM. The camera’s clock is also used with data imprinting.

When the Date/Time-set option is selected and entered, the date/time screen will be displayed. The left/right keys of the controller are used to select the item to be changed and the up/down keys are used to change the value. When the date and time have been adjusted, set the clock by pressing the central button of the controller.
