info.txt
A separate text file, called info.txt, is automatically created in the same folder as
the images if the info. txt menu in the SET-UP menu is set to On (p. 134). The
info.txt file contains the following data about each picture in the folder:
DSCN0001.JPG (Example): File name and type
CAMERA: Camera type and firmware version
METERING: Metering mode
MODE: Exposure mode
SHUTTER: Shutter speed
APERTURE: Aperture
EXP +/-: Exposure Compensation
FOCAL LENGTH: Focal length and Digital zoom factor
IMG ADJUST: Image adjustment
SENSITIVITY: Sensitivity (ISO equivalency)
WHITEBAL: White balance
SHARPNESS: Sharpening
DATE: Date of recording
QUALITY: Image size and quality
SATURATION: Saturation control
FOCUS AREA: Focus area
• info.txt can only be viewed when the CF memory card is directly read to the
computer and is not available when connecting the camera by USB. However,
Nikon View 4 can copy this information into a special part of the image file
called the IPTC text. This information can be read in certain applications such
as Fotostation and Photoshop (Full versions). To read this picture data when
connected by USB, set Nikon View 4 to copy the “Exif” data into the Caption
field of the IPTC test area, This information does NOT appear in the image.
Image files and folders—naming
DSCN0001.JPG
• Image file names created by the camera are named DSCN0001.JPG to
DSCN9999.JPG within a given folder. If and when the image file number in the
100NIKON folder reaches 9999, the COOLPIX995 automatically creates a new
folder called 101NIKON, and in that folder, new image files starting from
DSCN0001.JPG are stored.
• Images are stored in RGB TIFF (Red, Green and Blue Tagged Image File Format)
format when the image is taken in HI (no compression) mode. TIFF files are not
compressed and represent the highest possible Image quality.
• Images are stored in MOV (QuickTime Movie) format when the images are taken
in Movie mode (p. 83).
