Locating Pictures And Videos On A Card; Picture Naming Conventions - Kodak EasyShare LS633 User Manual

Locating Pictures and Videos on a Card

Pictures stored on MMC/SD Cards use a standard (DCF-Digital Camera
Format) agreed upon by many camera manufacturers. This lets you use the
cards in different cameras. If you use a card reader to retrieve your files, the
following description of the card file structure may be helpful.
MISC folder—contains the order files created when you use the Share
feature to tag files for printing, emailing, and as favorites.
SYSTEM folder—used for updating camera firmware.
DCIM folder—root level folder, contains the 100LS633 folder. Each time you
turn on the camera or insert a different card, any empty folders within the
DCIM folder are removed.
100LS633 subfolder—initially contains all pictures and videos on the card.

Picture Naming Conventions

m
Pictures are named 100_nnnn.JPG, and are numbered in the order in
which they are taken. The first picture is named 100_0001.JPG; the highest
number allowed is 100_9999.JPG.
m
When a card contains a picture named 100_9999.JPG in the
\DCIM\100LS633 folder, subsequent pictures appear in a new folder
(\DCIM\101LS633), beginning with picture 101_0001.JPG.
m
Even if you transfer pictures to the computer or delete pictures from the
camera, the camera continues to use consecutive numbers for all
subsequent pictures. For example, if the last picture taken was
100_0007.JPG and you delete it, the next picture you take is named
100_0008.JPG.
m
When you insert a different card into your camera, the next picture number
is defined by incrementing the higher of the last picture taken by the
camera, or the highest existing picture number in the folder.
