xxxis one of the following three-letter extensions: “NEF” for NEF (RAW) images, “JPG” for JPEG images, or “MOV” for movies. The NEF and JPEG files recorded at a setting of NEF (RAW)+JPEG have the same file names but different extensions. Copies created with image overlay (0 272) and movie edit options (0 164) have file names beginning with “DSC_” ; copies created with the other options in the retouch menu have file names beginning with “CSC” (e.g., “CSC_0001.JPG”). Images recorded with the Color space option in the shooting menu set to Adobe RGB (0 225) have names that begin with an underscore (e.g., “_DSC0001.JPG”).
