The range of reproducible colors is called “color space”. With this 
camera, you can set the color space for captured images to sRGB or 
Adobe RGB. For normal shoo ting, sRGB is recommended.
In Basic Zone modes, sRGB is set automatically.
1Select [Color space].
Under the [z2] tab, select [Color 
space], then press .
2Set the desired color space.
Select [sRGB] or [Adobe RGB], then 
press .
This color space is mainly used for commercial printing and other 
industrial uses. This setting is not recommended if you are not familiar 
with image processing, Adobe RGB,  and Design rule for Camera File 
System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). The image will look very subdued in a 
sRGB computer environment and with pr inters not compliant to Design 
rule for Camera File System 2.0 (Exif 2.21 or higher). Post-processing 
of the image with computer software will therefore be required.

Adobe RGB
If the captured still photo was shot in the Adobe RGB color space, the 
first character in the file name will be an underscore “_”.
 The ICC profile is not appended. For explanations about the ICC profile, 
refer to the Digital Photo Professional Instruction Manual.

Selecting a Folder
Number of images in folderFolder name Lowest file number
Highest file number
FoldersAs with “ 100CANON” for example, the folder name starts with three digits 
(the folder number) followed by five alphanumeric characters. A folder can 
contain up to 9999 images (file number 0001 - 9999). When a folder 
becomes full, a new folder with the  folder number increased by one is 
created automatically. Also, if manual  reset (p.185) is executed, a new 
folder will be created automatically. Folders numbered from 100 to 999 can 
be created.
Creating Folders with a ComputerWith the card open on the screen, create a new folder named “ DCIM”. Open 
the DCIM folder and create as many folders as necessary to save and 
organize your images. The folder name must follow the format 
“ 100ABC_D”. The first three digits are the folder number, from 100 to 999. 
The last five characters can be an y combination of upper- and lower-case 
letters from A to Z, numerals, and the underscore “_”. The space cannot be 
used. Also note that two folder names cannot share the same three-digit 
folder number (for example, “100ABC_D” and “100W_XYZ”), even if the last 
five characters in each name are different.

The image files will be numbered from 
0001 to 9999 in the order the images are 
taken, then saved in a folder. You can 
change how the file number is assigned.
1Select [File numbering].
Under the [51] tab, select [File 
numbering], then press .
2Select the file numbering method.
Select the desired setting, then press 
<
0>.
Continues the file numbering sequence even after the card is 
replaced or a new folder is created.
Even after you replace the card or  create a new folder, the file 
numbering continues in sequence up to  9999. This is useful when you 
want to save images numbered anywhere between 0001 to 9999 on 
multiple cards or in multiple fold ers into one folder on a computer.
If the replacement card or existing  folder already contains images 
recorded previously, the file numberi ng of the new images may continue 
from the file numbering of the exis ting images on the card or in the 
folder. If you want to use continuous file numbering, it is recommended 
that you use a newly formatted card each time.

3 File Numbering Methods
Restarts the file numbering from 0001 each time the card is 
replaced or a new folder is created.
When you replace the card or create a folder, the file numbering restarts 
from 0001 for the new images saved. This is useful if you want to 
organize images by cards or folders.
If the replacement card or existing folder already contains images 
recorded previously, the file numberi ng of the new images may continue 
from the file numbering of the exis ting images on the card or in the 
folder. If you want to save images with the file numbering starting from 
0001, use a newly formatted card each time.
Resets the file numbering to 0001 or to start from file number 0001 
in a new folder.
When you reset the file numbering manually, a new folder is created 
automatically and the file numbering of images saved to that folder 
starts from 0001.
This is useful, for example, when yo u want to use different folders for 
the images taken yesterday and the ones taken today.

If the file number in folder 999 reaches 9999, shooting will not be possible 
even if the card still has storage capacity. The LCD monitor will display a 
message telling you to replace the card. Replace it with a new card.
For both JPEG and RAW images, the file name will start with “IMG_”. Movie 
file names will start with “MVI_”. The extension will be “.JPG” for JPEG 
images, “.CR2” for RAW images, and “.MOV” or “.MP4” for movies.
