Appendix 
About the Folder & File Name 
Your digital camera automatically creates a directory of folders in the internal memory or 
memory card that it uses to organize still images, movie clips and other information. 
Folder Structure 
Your camera creates three directory 
names: 
y DICAM. All captured images, videos and 
audio files are stored in this folder except 
for files recorded using the Auction or 
YouTube® mode. 
y _AUCT. Captured images using the 
Auction mode are saved in this folder. 
y _UTUBE. Captured videos using the 
YouTube® mode are saved in this folder. 
Folder name begins with a 3-digit number 
from 100 to 999 and followed by “DICAM” 
or “_AUCT” or “UTUBE”, each folder holds 
up to 9999 files. If new files are made, a 
new folder named in sequence will be 
made automatically.

File Naming 
File name begins with “DSCI” and are followed by a 4-digit number that increases in 
sequence. File numbering starts from 0001 when a new folder is created. 
 
If the highest folder number is 999 and highest file number exceeds 9999, the camera 
will display the warning message “Folder cannot be created”. When it appears, try one of 
the following ways: 
 
y  Reset the file number and plug in a new memory card. 
y  The folder number and file number are initialized and renumbered from 100 and 
0001 respectively. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
y  Do not change the folder and file names in the memory card using your 
computer. It may be unable to playback the data using the digital camera.
