Konica Minolta G600 instruction manual Camera Notes

Image and audio file names begin with “PICT” followed by a four-digit file number and a jpg, avi, or wav extension. Audio files attached to still images have a wav extension and the file number corre- sponds to their image file. Voice recordings also use the wav extension.

When the file number exceeds 9,999, a new folder is created. The first three digits of the folder name increase by one: e.g. from 100KM017 to 101KM017. “KM” stands for Konica Minolta, and 017 indicates a DiMAGE G600 camera.

The file number may not correspond to the frame number of the image played back in the camera. As images are deleted in the camera, the frame counter adjusts itself to show the number of images on the card and reassigns the frame numbers accordingly. The serial numbers used with image files do not change when an image is deleted.

Camera Notes

Image files contain exif tag data. This data includes the time and date the image was recorded as well as the camera settings used. This data can be viewed with the camera or the DiMAGE Viewer software. If a camera image is opened in a photo-retouching application like Adobe Photoshop, and then the image is saved overwriting the original data, the exif tag information is erased. When using software other than the DiMAGE Viewer, always make a backup copy of the image files to protect the exif tag data.

To view images correctly on your computer, the monitor’s color space may need to be adjust- ed. Refer to your computer manual on how to calibrate the display to the following require- ments: sRGB, with a color temperature of 6500K, and a gamma of 2.2. Changes made to the captured image with the camera’s contrast and color-saturation controls will affect any color- matching software in use.
