Appendix  
About Folder and File Names  
Your camera automatically creates specific directory of folder in the internal memory cards to organize  
captured images, videos and audio files.  
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:  
Reset the file number. See "Setting File Numbering" on page 56.  
Do not change the folder and file names in the memory card using your PC. It may be unable  
to playback the data using the camera.
