Create New Folder

Creates a new folder on the memory card for recording still images. A new folder is created with a folder number one greater than the largest folder number currently used. Images are recorded in the newly created folder.

Up to 9 999 images in total can be stored in one folder. When the folder capacity is exceeded, a new folder may be automatically created.

  1. MENU → (Shooting) → [File] → [Create New Folder].

Hint

  • The name of the folder that is created will vary depending on the [Folder Name] setting.
    [Standard Form]: In the folder name “Folder number + any 5 characters”, +1 will be added to the folder number.
    Example: 100MSDCF → 101MSDCF
    [Date Form]: In the folder name “Folder number + year/month/day (last digit of the year and 4 digits representing the month/day)”, +1 will be added to the folder number.
    Example: 10040405 → 10140405
  • When [Folder Name] is set to [Standard Form], the last 5 characters of the folder name can be set using [Create New Folder]. (Only uppercase letters, numbers, and underscores can be entered.)
  • You can also set the last 5 characters of the folder name by using [Forced File Number Reset].

Note

  • When you insert a memory card that was used with other equipment into this product and shoot images, a new folder may be automatically created.
  • If the camera is set to record images to memory cards in both slots, a new folder will be created on both memory cards. A new folder number will be one greater than the largest existing folder number on the two memory cards.
  • If the camera is set to record images to memory cards in both slots and an image is shot, a new folder may be automatically created.
  • You cannot change the folder name when [Folder Name] under [File/Folder Settings] is set to [Date Form].
