•This unit stores up to 999 picture files in each folder. A new folder is created after this maximum is reached.

•To reset file and folder numbers, use [NO.RESET] in the setup menu. (P25)

Folder numbers are updated when:

•The folder containing the picture you just shot had a file numbered 999 in it.

•You insert a card you had been using on another manufacturer’s camera that has a file number 100 (e.g. 100_XXXXX, XXXXX is the manufacturer’s name, etc.) immediately after using a card that had a folder numbered 100. (That is, you insert a card with the same number, irrespective of the manufacturer.)

•You start shooting again after using [NO.RESET] in the setup menus (P25). (It is recorded to a new folder that has a number following on from the one previous. You can also reset the folder number to 100 by using [NO.RESET] immediately after formatting the card when there are no folders or pictures on the card.)

•If the remaining battery power is exhausted during communication, the recorded data may be damaged. When you connect the camera to the PC, use a battery with sufficient battery power (P14) or the AC adaptor (ACA-DC4-U/J/E; opt.).

•If the remaining battery power becomes low during communication, the alarm beeps. In this case, stop the communication immediately.

•While [ACCESS] is being displayed, do not disconnect the USB connection cable.

•For Windows 2000 users: Disconnect the USB cable before changing the card. Changing the card while the cable is still connected can damage the data on the card.

•Do not use any other USB connection cables except the supplied one.

•Refer to the operating instructions of the PC, too.

•You can process [RAW] format files with [Photoshop Elements 3]

(on the included CD-ROM).

About PictBridge (PTP) setting

•With Windows XP Home Edition/ Professional and Mac OS X, you can leave the USB mode setting as [PictBridge (PTP)].

•You can only load pictures from the camera and cannot write them on the card or delete them.

•When there are 1000 or more pictures on a card, the pictures may not be imported.
