Your camera treats each snapshot, movie, and Voice Recording, as a separate file.
You can delete, protect, and copy files as required.
Files are grouped in folders that are created automatically by the camera.
Files and folders have their own unique names, which are assigned automatically by the camera.
• For details about how folders are organized in memory, see "Memory Folder Structure" (page 239).
Each folder can contain up to 9999 files named CIMG0001 through CIMG9999. The
extension on the file name depends on the file type.
• If a folder already contains 9999 files, recording another file will cause a new folder to
be created automatically.
Folders are named from 100CASlO _'to 999CASlO •
• There can be up to 900 folders.
_' The BEST SHOT mode (page 97) includes a sample scene that optimizes settings
for auction site images. Depending on your camera model, the sample scene is
named either "For eBay" or "Auction".
- Images recorded with the eBay scene are stored in a folder named "100 EBAY".
- Images recorded with the Auction scene are stored in a folder named
"100 AUCT".
_' The BEST SHOT mode (page 97) also has a scene (named "For YouTube") that
