When the file number 9999 is reached, the camera automatically creates

a new folder and the next image will be stored in that folder with the file

number 0001. At this time, the number of the newly created folder will be

one digit higher than that of the highest-numbered folder on the card.

AUTO FOLDER

When changing the card or switching between the SmartMedia and

CompactFlash, the folder No. will be serial numbers from the former card,

and the file No. will return to 0001.

For example, if you remove the card that folder No. 101 and file No. 0005

are recorded on and insert another card, the folder No. will be 102, and

the file No. of the next image will return to 0001.

You can line up the folders in order of shooting, when you copy images

by the folder to the computer. The file No. of every folder starts from

0001, so you can manage the data as you manage photo films.

The AUTO FOLDER function is provided to define more than one folder

for categorizing pictures. New folders are created in the following cases:

1. When the camera is in one of the shooting modes (the mode dial is set

to “P”, “A” or “M”), a picture is taken after switching between the

SmartMedia and CompactFlash cards by pressing the [SM/CF] button.

Even if either one of the cards is not loaded, the camera assumes that

switching is complete when the button is pressed.

2. When the camera is in one of the shooting modes (the mode dial is set

to “P”, “A” or “M”), a picture is taken after changing the card (by open-

ing and closing the card cover since it makes the camera assume that

the card has been changed although no change has occurred).

3. The first picture is taken after the camera is turned on (or after return-

ing from the standby mode).

The camera holds in memory the folder number that was selected right

before the above procedure 1, 2 or 3 is performed and attempts to assign

a sequence number. Then the camera searches through the switched or

changed card (or the card onto which an image will be stored for the first

time after the power is switched on) for the highest-numbered folder. Now

the camera compares the highest folder number that has been found on

the new card with that on the card used immediately before and creates a

new folder with a number that is one digit higher than the larger one

between those two folder numbers. (If they have the same number, the

camera creates a new folder with a number that is one digit higher than

that number.)

Unless the above procedure 1, 2 or 3 is performed after the new folder

has been created, new files will be stored in this folder with sequential

numbers from 0001. When the file number 9999 is reached, the camera

automatically creates a new folder and the next image will be stored in

that folder with a file number 0001. At this time, the number of the newly

created folder will be one digit larger than that of the highest-numbered

folder on the card.

• If the folder name with the highest folder number is other than

“***OLYMP”, the camera automatically creates an “***OLYMP” folder.
