Konica Minolta A2 Digital Camera User Manual


 
FOLDER NAME
All recorded images are stored in folders on the memory card. Folder
names come in two formats: standard and date.
Standard folders have an eight character name. The initial folder is
named 100KM003. The first three digits are the folder’s serial number,
which will increase by one each time a new folder is created. The next
two letters refer to Konica Minolta, and the last three numbers indicate
the camera used; 003 indicates a DiMAGE A2.
A date folder name also starts with the three digit serial number and is
followed by one register for the year, two register for the month, and two
registers for the day: 100YMMDD. The folder 10140223 was created in
2004 on February 23
rd
.
With the date folder format selected, when an image is recorded a new folder with the
day’s date will be created. All images recorded that day will be placed in that folder.
Images recorded on a different day will placed in a new folder with the corresponding
date. When a new folder is created, the serial number in the image-file name is reset to
0001 unless file number memory is active. For more information on folder organization
and file names, see page 152.

SELECT FOLDER
This option allows the selection of existing folders. In quick view or playback mode, the
images in the selected folder can be viewed or edited. In recording mode, the folder-
name option on in section 2 of the setup menu must be set to standard form in order to
select the folder in which to place the subsequent recorded images.
Except for the all-frames-C cancel-print options in section 3 of the playback menu,
changes made with menus only affect the images in the selected folder. To make
changes to all images in multiple folders, each folder must be selected and the menu
operation repeated for each folder. Folders can be selected temporarily with the view-
folder option in section 1 of the playback menu (p. 120). Formatting a memory card in
section 1 of the playback menu, erases all folders regardless if they are selected or not.
