•Files are stored in folders named with a folder number followed by a five- character identifier: “P_” plus a three-digit sequence number for pictures taken using Panorama assist (e.g. “101P_001”; A 40), “INTVL” for interval timer photography (e.g. “101INTVL”; A 80), and “NIKON” for all other pictures (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 copy 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 (A 90).

•Folders can hold up to 200 pictures; if a picture is taken when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a new folder will be created by adding one to the current folder number. If a picture is taken when the current folder is numbered 999 and

contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no further pictures can be taken until the medium is formatted (A 103) or a new memory card inserted.
