Folder Name - Minolta Dimage Dimage Xi Instruction Manual

Folder name

All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Folder names come in two formats:
standard and date.
Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is named
100MLT15. The first three digits are the folder's serial number, which will increase by
one each time a new folder is created. The next three letters refer to Minolta, and the
last two numbers indicate the camera used; 15 indicates a DiMAGE Xi.
A date folder name also starts with the three digit serial number and is followed by
one register for the year, two register for the month, and two registers for the day:
101YMMDD. The folder 10121012 was created in 2002 on October 12th.
With the date folder format selected, when an image is recorded a new folder with
the day's date will be created. All images recorded that day will be placed in that
folder. Images recorded on a different day will placed in a new folder with the corresponding date. If
the file number memory function is off, when a new folder is created, the serial number in the image-
file name is reset to 0001. For more information on folder organization and file names, see page 82.
