Creating, Renaming and Deleting Folders: The Folder Options Menu The folder options menu can be used to create, rename or delete folders. -- Creating New Folders -- 1 OPTIONS New Rename Delete 2 SET NEW L M NIKON O P SELECT SET The camera file system conforms to the Design Rule for Camera File System (DCF). Under this system, folder names consist of a three-digit folder number followed by the folder name (e. g. , "100NIKON"). Each folder can hold a maximum of 200 images (it may hold less, depending on the size of the CF memory card and other factors). Should a folder fill up, another folder will automatically be created with the same name but a different folder number (e. g. , "101NIKON"). For most purposes, the folder number can be ignored--when viewed from the camera, folders with the same name but different folder numbers are the same folder. For example, the camera shows the folders "100NIKON" and "101NIKON" as the single folder "NIKON" with no folder number. When the CF memory card is viewed on a computer, however, folders with the same name but different folder numbers will be treated as separate folders (see the "Nikon View Reference Manual" for details). If you have trouble locating a photo on a computer, you can play it back on the camera, where the folder number and name are shown in the photo-information display.
