you delete these files, you will be unable to transfer movies to the camera from a
computer.
• The "xxxx" in file names represent four-digit numbers.
• ** Each successive file shot in Stitch Assist mode is assigned a letter starting from
"A," which is inserted as the third digit in the name. i.e. [STA_0001.JPG], [STB_0002.
JPG], [STC_0003.JPG]...
• All folders except the "xxx__mm" or "xxx_mmdd" folders contain image settings
files. Do not open or delete them.
• Depending on the camera, some data types cannot be recorded.
