Note

Folders

Folders are named as in “

100EOS1D

,” with a three-digit folder number followed by

five letters or numbers. A folder can contain up to 9999 images (file number 0001–
9999). When a folder becomes full, a new folder with the folder number increased
by one is created automatically. Also, if manual reset (

) is executed, a new folder

will be created automatically. Folders numbered from 100 to 999 can be created.

Creating folders with a computer

With the card open on the screen, create a new folder with “

DCIM

” as the name.

Open the DCIM folder and create as many folders as necessary to save and
organize your images. “

100ABC_D

” is the required format for folder names, and

the first three digits must be a folder number in the range 100–999. The last five
characters can be any combination of upper- and lower-case letters from A to Z,
numerals, and the underscore “_”. The space cannot be used. Also note that two
folder names cannot share the same three-digit folder number (for example,
“100ABC_D” and “100W_XYZ”) even if the remaining five characters in each name
are different.
