About Folders
As _ th "100CANON" for example, the folder name starts with three digits
(folder number) followed by five alphanumeric characters. A folder can contain
up to 9999 images (file No. 0901 - 9999). When a folder becomes full. a new
folder with a higher one-up folder number is created automatically. Also. if
manual reset (p.107) is executed, a new folder will be created automatically.
Folders numbered from 100 to 999 can be created.
Creating Folders with a Personal Computer
With the card open on the screen, create a new folder named "DCIM". Open
the DClM folder and create as many folders as necessary to save and
organize your images. The folder name must follow the "100ABC_D" forma_
where the first three digits is 109 - 999 followed by five alphanumeric
characters. The five characters can be a combination of upper- or lower-case
letters from A to Z. numerals, and an underscore " ". There can be no space in
the folder name. Also. folder names cannot have the same three-digit number
such as "109ABC D" and "100W XYZ" even if the letters are different.
