• File Names
IiiI
Photographs are stored as image files with names consisting of a three-letter identifier
("DSC"
for photos,
"SSe"
for copies created with the small picture option in the retouch
menu,
"ASC"
for stop-motion movies, and
"CSC"
for copies created with other retouch
options) followed by
"_nnnn.xxx;'
where
nnnn
is a four-digit number between 0001 and
9999 assigned automatically in ascending order by the camera, and
xxx
is one of the
following three letter extensions: "NEF" for NEF images, "JPG" for JPEG images, or "AVI" for
stop-motion movies. The NEF and JPEG files recorded at a setting of
NEF (RAW) + JPEG
basic have the same file names but different extensions.
