Image File and Folder Names
In the memory or on the memory card, pictures are identified by file names with three
parts: a four letter identifier, a four-digit file number assigned automatically by the
camera in ascending order, and a three-letter extension (e.g., "DSCN0001.JPG").
When a picture is viewed in the monitor, the file number and extension appear in the
top right corner of the display. The identifier is not displayed, but is visible when pic-
tures are transferred to a computer.

• Pictures are stored in a folder created automatically by the camera. The folder name includes a
three-digit folder number (e.g., 100NIKON).
• When the current folder is full (200 pictures) a new folder is automatically created. The new fold-
er becomes the current folder, and its number is incremented by one (e.g., 100NIKON →
101NIKON).
• Each time you take pictures in Panorama assist mode, a "P_xxx" folder (e.g., "101P_001") is au-
tomatically created, and a series of pictures starting with "DSCN0001" are stored in the folder.
• When you take pictures after switching the mode from Panorama assist mode, a new folder will
be created, and newly taken pictures are stored in the folder.
• If you take a picture when the current folder contains a picture numbered 9999, a new folder
will be created and file numbering will begin again from 0001.
• If file number reaches 200 or picture number reaches 9999 when the memory or the memory
card contains a folder numbered 999, no further pictures can be taken, even if there is still mem-
ory capacity. Replace the memory card, or transfer all pictures to a computer (
format the memory or the memory card (
• When the
button is pressed in shooting mode, the picture with the largest number stored in
the folder is displayed.
