Changing the Naming System of the Folder

When images are captured with this camera, a folder is automatically created and the captured images are stored in the new folder. Each folder name consists of a sequential number from 100 to 999 and a string of 5 characters. You can change the folder name in [Folder Name] of the [RSet-up 2] menu.

 

The two digits of the month and day on which the picture was taken are

 

assigned as the folder name in the form of [xxx_MMDD]. (default setting)

Date

[MMDD] (month and day) appears according to the display format set

 

in [Date Adjustment] (p.58).

 

Example: 101_0125 (folder for images taken on January 25th)

PENTX

The folder name is assigned in the form of [xxxPENTX].

 

Example: 101PENTX

A maximum of 500 images can be stored in a single folder. When the number of captured images exceeds 500, a new folder is created to store the additional images. In Exposure Bracketing shooting, images will be stored in the same folder until shooting is completed, even if the number of images exceeds 500.

Creating New Folders

You can create a new folder on an SD Memory Card. A folder is created with the number following the number of the folder currently being used. The newly created folder is used to store images starting with the next captured image.
