10 Appendix
• About Folder and File Names
Your camera automatically creates specific directory of folders in the internal
memory memory cards to organize captured images, videos and audio files.
Folder Structure
Your camera creates three directory names:
• DICAM. All captured images, videos and audio
files are stored in this folder except for files
recorded using the Auction or YouTube mode.
• _AUCT. Captured images using the Auction mode
are saved in this folder.
• _UTUBE. Captured videos using the YouTube
mode are saved in this folder.
Folder names begin with a 3-digit number from 100 to 999 and followed by
“DICAM” or “_AUCT” or“_UTUBE”. Each folder holds up to 9999 files. If
new files are saved, a new folder named in sequence will be automatically
created.
File Naming
File names begin with “DSCI” and followed by a 4-digit number that increases
in sequence. File numbering starts from 0001 when a new folder is created.
If the highest folder number is 999 and the highest file number exceeds 9999,
the camera will display the warning message “Folder cannot be created.”
When this happens, try one of the following ways:
