Select On to reduce barrel distortion in photos taken with wide-
angle lenses and to reduce pin-cushion distortion in photos
taken with long lenses (note that the edges of the area visible in
the viewfinder may be cropped out of the final photograph, and
that the time needed to process photographs before recording
begins may increase).
This option does not apply to movies and
is available only with type G and D lenses (PC, fisheye, and certain other lenses
excluded); results are not guaranteed with other lenses.

DFolder Names
On the memory card, folder names are preceded by a three-digit folder number assigned
automatically by the camera (e.g., 100D5200).
Each folder can contain up to 999
photographs.
During shooting, pictures are stored in the highest-numbered folder with the
selected name.
If a photograph is taken when the current folder is full or contains a
photograph numbered 9999, the camera will create a new folder by adding 1 to the current
folder number (e.g., 101D5200).
The camera treats folders with the same name but different
folder numbers as the same folder.
For example, if the folder NIKON is selected for Storage
folder, photographs in all folders named NIKON (100NIKON, 101NIKON, 102NIKON, etc.) will
be visible when Current is selected for Playback folder (0148).
Renaming changes all
folders with the same name but leaves the folder numbers intact.
Selecting Delete deletes
empty numbered folders but leaves other folders with the same name intact.
