File Naming
Photographs are saved using file names consisting of “DSC_” or, in
the case of images that use the Adobe RGB color space, “_DSC”,
followed by a four-digit number and a three-letter extension (e.g.,
“DSC_0001.JPG”).
The [File naming] option is used to select three
letters to replace the “DSC” portion of the file name.
For
information on editing file names, see steps 2 and 3 of “Renaming
Shooting Menu Banks” (pg. 256).
Note that the portion of the
name that can be edited is a maximum of three characters long.
