Names of memory cards connected to a PC•Depending on your specific PC and operating system, the name assigned to the
connected memory card may vary. Common names are "UNTITLED (E:)" and
"NO_NAME".
Shooting data folders and files on memory card•The folders and files used to store the shooting data on the memory card (x10)
have the following structure (example shown is for the F6):
For shooting data storage
Data reader folder Camera model folder Camera ID folder Shooting data files
nikon_dr F6 ID012 n00001.txt
n00002.txt
n00003.txt
For setting/changing recording mode of F5/F100
For details on these folders (x 21).

•The camera model (F6, F5, F100) is automatically detected, and the camera model
folder name automatically set.
•The camera ID folder name identifies the same model type.
The camera ID folder name is "IDxxx" where "xxx" is one of the following:
F6: The ID number of the camera (000~999)
F5: “255” (fixed) (Changed ID number of the camera if the camera ID number
has been changed using the AC-1WE or AC-1ME Photo Secretary for F5*.)
* Photo Secretary for F5 is no longer available.
F100: Three underbars (fixed)
•If there are 8,192 shooting data files in the camera ID folder, a new camera ID
folder of the same name followed by "_xx" (where xx is a number from 01 to 99)
will be created, and new shooting data files stored in that folder.
•The shooting data file names are displayed as "nxxxxx.txt" where xxxxx is a numeral
from 00001 to 09999, and indicates the film number. If a file name already exists in
the folder it will not be rewritten, but the new file will instead have "_xxxx"
appended to it, where xxxx is a numeral from 0001 to 9999.
Memory card formatting (initialization)•Memory cards should be formatted by a PC using FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32 file
systems (The MV-1 cannot format memory cards). The file system will vary with
your specific PC and operating system. Refer to the corresponding instruction
manuals for details.
