Pictures and sound fi les are stored in folders named with a three-digit folder number followed
by a fi ve-character identifi er: “P_” plus a three-digit sequence number for pictures taken us-
ing panorama assist (e.g, “101P_001”;
28–29), “INTVL” for interval timer photography (e.g.,
“101INTVL”;
58), “SOUND” or “SOUNE” for voice recordings (e.g., “101SOUND”;
34), and
“NIKON” for all other pictures (e.g, “100NIKON”). Folders can hold up to 200 pictures; if a picture
is taken when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a new folder will be created by adding
one to the current folder number. If a picture is taken when the current folder is numbered
999 and contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no further pictures can be taken
until the medium is formatted (
71) or a new memory card inserted.
Files copied using [Copy] > [Selected images] or [Copy sound fi les] > [Selected fi les] are copied
to the current folder, where they are assigned new fi le numbers in ascending order starting
from the largest fi le number in memory. [Copy] > [All images] and [Copy sound fi les] > [Copy
all fi les] copy all folders from the source device; fi le names do not change but new folder num-
bers are assigned in ascending order starting from the largest folder number on the destina-
tion device (
36, 64).
Pictmotion movies (
43) are stored under the “NKSS” folder in folders named with a three-
digit folder number followed by “PRJCT” (e.g., “101PRJCT”). Each folder contains the picture
and sound fi les for a single Pictmotion movie.
