MEMORY CARD FOLDER ORGANIZATION
Once the camera is connected to the computer, image files can be
accessed by double clicking on icons. Image folders are located in the
DCIM folder. To copy images, simply drag and drop the file icon into a
location in the computer.
When a new folder is created, the first three digits in the folder name is one greater than the largest
folder number on the card. When the file number in the image file name exceeds 9,999, a new
folder is created with a number one greater than the greatest folder number on the memory card:
e.g. from 100KM023 to 101KM023.
The file number on the image file may not correspond to its frame number on the camera. As
images are deleted in the camera, the frame counter adjust itself to show the number of images on
the card and reassign the frame numbers accordingly. The file numbers on the image files do not
change when an image is deleted. When a new image is recorded, it is assigned a number one
greater than the largest file number in the folder. File numbers can be controlled with the file-
number-memory function in section 2 of the setup menu (p. 107).
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 and DiMAGE Master software.
If a camera image is opened in an image-processing application that does not support Exif
tags, and then the image is saved overwriting the original data, the Exif tag information is
erased. Some Exif compatible applications rewrite the Exif data preventing the DiMAGE Viewer
or DiMAGE Master from reading it. When using software other than the DiMAGE Viewer and
DiMAGE Master, always rename the image file to protect the exif tag data.
To view images correctly on your computer, the monitor’s color space may need to be adjust-
ed. Refer to your computer manual on how to calibrate the display to the following require-
ments: sRGB, with a color temperature of 6500K, and a gamma of 2.2.

Files and folders on the memory card can be
deleted using the computer. Changing file
names or adding other types of data to the
card with a computer may cause the camera to
malfunction.
Image file names begin with
“PICT” followed by a four-digit file
number and a mrw, jpg, jpe, or
thm extension. The thumbnail
images (thm) are used in camera,
DiMAGE Viewer, and DiMAGE
Master operation.
