*1 New folders are created in the following cases:
• When there is a picture with file number 999 inside the folder
• When using cards already containing the same folder number (for example, pictures taken with
other cameras, etc.).
• When recording after performing [No.Reset].
*2 This folder is not created in the built-in memory.
Before inserting or removing a card, turn the camera off and disconnect the USB
connection cable. Otherwise, data may be destroyed.
Use a battery with sufficient battery power or the AC adaptor (optional).
When the battery begins to run out during communication, a warning beep sounds.
Cancel communication via your computer immediately. (→193) Otherwise, data may be
destroyed.
Before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor (optional), turn the camera off.
Setting the [USB Mode] to [PC] removes the need to make the setting each time the
camera is connected to the computer.
