FILE MANAGEMENT
The file management capabilities of the camera make it easy
to keep track of images. You can protect files against dele-
tion, and even use its DPOF feature to specify images for
printing.
Folders
Your camera automatically creates a directory of folders in
its built-in flash memory or on the memory card to store im-
ages.
Memory Folders and Files
An image you record is automatically stored in a folder,
whose name is a serial number. You can have up to 900
folders in memory at the same time. Folder names are gen-
erated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 100th folder.
Each folder can hold files numbered up to 9,999.
Trying to store the 10,000th file in a folder causes the next
serially numbered folder to be created. Folder names are
generated as shown below.
Example: Name of the 26th file
Extension
CIMG0026.JPG
Serial number (4 digits)
The actual number of files you will be able to store on a
memory card depends on the image quality settings, ca-
pacity of the card, etc.
For details about the directory structure, see “Memory Di-
rectory Structure” on page 94.

    • C
      Christopher ButlerAug 17, 2025
      If your Casio Digital Camera's power doesn't turn on, the most likely cause is a dead battery. You should charge the battery. If the battery still goes dead quickly after being charged, it probably needs to be replaced. You can purchase a separately available NP-20 rechargeable lithium ion battery.

      If your Casio Digital Camera's monitor screen is off, it could be due to a couple of reasons. First, check if “LCD-OFF” is selected for the “Indicators” setting on the REC tab. If so, change the “Indicators” setting to “LCD-ON”. Second, if USB communication is in progress, disconnect the USB cable after confirming that the computer is not accessing camera memory.

    • R
      Roger JimenezSep 3, 2025
      If the color of the playback image is different from the image on the monitor screen during recording on your Casio Digital Camera, it means sunlight or another light source is shining directly into the lens during recording. Position the camera so sunlight does not shine directly into the lens.
