Each folder can contain up to 999 photographs. During shooting, photographs are recorded in the highest-numbered folder for the selected name. For example, if the folder NCD60 is selected for Select folder and there are two folders named “101NCD60“ and “102NCD60“, photographs are recorded in “102NCD60“. 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 one to the current folder number (e.g., “101NCD60“).
