Small copies
Copies created using editing
functions other than small
picture and crop
Files are stored in folders named with a folder number followed by an identifier:
"NIKON" (e.g. "100NIKON"). When the number of files within a folder reaches
9999, a new folder will be created. File numbers will be assigned automatically
starting with "0001."
Files copied using Copy>Selected images are copied to the current folder,
where they are assigned new file numbers in ascending order starting from the
largest file number in memory. Copy>All images copy all folders from the
source medium; file names do not change but new folder numbers are
assigned in ascending order, starting from the largest folder number on the
destination medium (E50).
A single folder can hold up to 200 files; if the current folder already contains 200
files, a new folder, named by adding one to the current folder name, will be
created the next time a file is stored. If the current folder is numbered 999 and
contains 200 files, or a file is numbered 9999, no further files can be stored until
the internal memory or memory card is formatted (E73), or a new memory
card is inserted.
