n Folder Composition
Folders appear as follows.
1 Folder number
2 File number
3 JPG : Pictures
MOV : Motion pictures
The contents of each folder are:
• This unit stores up to 999 picture files in 
each folder. A new folder is created after 
this maximum is reached.
• To reset file and folder numbers, use 
[NO.RESET] in the setup menu. (P25)
n Folder numbers are updated when: 
• The folder containing the picture you just 
shot had a file numbered 999 in it.
• You insert a card you had been using on 
another manufacturer’s camera that has a 
file number 100 (e.g. 100_XXXXX, 
XXXXX is the manufacturer’s name, etc.) 
immediately after using a card that had a 
folder numbered 100. (That is, you insert 
a card with the same number, irrespective 
of the manufacturer.)
• You start shooting again after using 
[NO.RESET] in the setup menus (P25). (It 
is recorded to a new folder that has a 
number following on from the one 
previous. You can also reset the folder 
number to 100 by using [NO.RESET] 
immediately after formatting the card 
when there are no folders or pictures on 
the card.)
• If the remaining battery power is 
exhausted during communication, the 
recorded data may be damaged. When 
you connect the camera to the PC, use a 
battery with sufficient battery power (P14) 
or the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5; optional).
• If the remaining battery power becomes 
low during communication, the alarm 
beeps. In this case, stop the 
communication immediately.
• While [ACCESS] is being displayed, do 
not disconnect the USB connection cable.
• For Windows 2000 users: Disconnect 
the USB cable before changing the 
card. Changing the card while the 
cable is still connected can damage 
the data on the card. (For details, refer 
to the separate operating instructions 
for PC connection.)
• Do not use any other USB connection 
cables except the supplied one.
• Refer to the operating instructions of the 
PC, too.
n About PictBridge (PTP) setting
• With Windows XP Home Edition/
Professional and Mac OS X, you can 
leave the USB mode setting as 
[PictBridge (PTP)].
• You can only load pictures from the 
camera and cannot write them on the 
card or delete them.
• When there are 1000 or more pictures on 
a card, the pictures may not be imported.
