Setting the file name

You can set the file name of an image when the image is saved in the computer. A
file name is allocated to the image according the rules set in the [File Naming Rule]
dialog box.

File Naming Rule

A file name is configured into three blocks: [Prefix], [Base], and [Suffix]. Optional
separator characters can be placed between the blocks. The data format is
confirmed and an extension is added automatically.
Any of the following five block types can be selected for each block. Depending on
the item, after an item is selected, additional characters may be entered or selected
from a box.
(None)
Optional String
Shooting Date

Time
Serial Number
• If the configured file name already exists in the same folder, a serial number
(_01, _02 ...) is automatically added to the suffix of the new file name.
