File number (assigned automatically in ascending order, starting with “0001”)

Files are saved in folders named with a folder number followed by an identifier: “P_” plus a

three-digit sequential number for images captured in Panorama assist scene mode (e.g. “101P_001”; E2) and “NIKON” for all other images (e.g. “100NIKON”). When the number of files within a folder reaches 9999, a new folder will be created. File numbers will be assigned automatically starting with “0001”.

Files copied using Copy > Selected images are copied to the current folder, where they are assigned new file numbers in ascending order starting from the largest file number in memory. Copy > All images copies all folders from the source medium; file names do not

change but new folder numbers are assigned in ascending order, starting from the largest folder number on the destination medium (E36).

A single folder can hold up to 200 images; if the current folder already contains 200 images, a new folder, named by adding one to the current folder name, will be created the next time an image is captured. If the current folder is numbered 999 and contains 200

images, or an image is numbered 9999, no further images can be captured until the internal memory or memory card is formatted (E54), or a new memory card is inserted.
