Setting the method for recording on a memory card
Setup of the camera
• If you set [Recording Mode] to other than [Standard] and start recording, a new
folder may be created automatically.
• When you insert a memory card that has been used with other equipment into the
camera and shoot images, a new folder may be created automatically.
• Up to 4,000 images can be stored in a folder. When the folder capacity is exceeded, a
new folder is created automatically.
When inconsistencies are found in the image database file, caused by
processing images on computers, etc., images on the memory card will not
be played back in this form. If this happens, the camera repairs the file.
