DATA
-TRANSFER MODE
Files and folders on the memory card can be deleted using the computer. Do not
change the name of a file on the card or add a date to the card with a computer. Never
format the memory card from the computer; always use the camera to format the card
(p. 58, 70).
The number in the image file name may not correspond to the frame number of the
image on the camera. As images are deleted on the camera, the frame counter will
adjust itself to show the number of images on the memory card and reassign the frame
numbers accordingly. The file numbers will not change when an image is deleted.
When a new image is recorded, it will be assigned a number one greater than the
largest file number in the folder.
When the file number exceeds 9,999, a new folder will be created with a number one
greater than the greatest folder number on the memory card: e.g. from 100MLT15 to
101MLT15. When a DPOF file is created for a print order (p. 64), a misc. folder is
automatically made for the file.

file
Image files contain exif tag data. This data includes the time and date the image was recorded
as well as the camera settings used. This data can be viewed with the camera or the DiMAGE
Viewer software.
If an image is opened in a image-processing application that does not support exif tag data,
and then the image is saved overwriting the original data, the exif tag information will be
erased. When using software other than the DiMAGE Viewer, always rename the image file to
protect the exif tag data.

Super-fine image
Once the camera is connected to the computer, image and
audio files can be accessed by double clicking on icons. To
copying images and audio recordings, simply drag and drop the
file icon into a location in the computer.
Image-file names begin with “PICT” followed by a four-digit file number and a tif, jpg,
mov, or thm extension. Voice-memo and audio caption files have a wav extension and
the file name corresponds to its image file. Audio recordings also use the wav
extension. The thumbnail images (thm) are produced with super-fine images and are
only used in camera operation.
The MLTEM. folder
contains e-mail
