Copies are stored as fi les with names of the form “SSCNnnnn.JPG,” where
nnnn” is a four-digit number assigned by adding one to the largest fi le
number in the current folder. Copies are independent of the originals: delet-
ing the copy has no effect on the original, deleting the original no effect on
the copy. Copies are created with the same transfer marking and date and
time of recording as the original; print and protect attributes are not set.

Copies can not be viewed using playback zoom.
