Casio EX-M2 - EXILIM Digital Camera User manual

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

• The actual number of files you will be able to store on a

camera images should be printed and how

many copies of the image should be printed.

Then you can print on a DPOF-compatible

printer or at a professional print service in ac-

cordance with the file name and number of

copies settings recorded on the card.

just the way you intended when you re-

corded them.
