Image File and Folder Names

Pictures, movies, and voice memos are assigned file names with three parts: a four letter identifier, a four-digit file number assigned automatically by the camera in ascending order, and a three-letter extension (e.g., “DSCN0001.JPG”).

Pictures and sound files are stored in folders named with a three-digit folder number fol- lowed by a five-character identifier: “P_” plus a three-digit sequence number for pictures taken using panorama assist (e.g., “101P_001”; B 35), “INTVL” for interval timer photogra- phy (e.g., “101INTVL”; B 74), “SOUND” for voice recordings (e.g., “101SOUND”; B 51), and “NIKON” for all other pictures (e.g., “101NIKON”). 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 (B 88) or a new memory card is inserted.

Files copied using Copy>Selected images or COPY SOUND FILES>Selected files 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 and COPY SOUND FILES>Copy all files copy all folders from the source device; file names do not change but new folder numbers are assigned in ascending order starting from the largest folder number on the destination device (B 53, 82).
