You can change the file names of images.
The default naming conventions are as follows depending on the [Color 
Space] (p.148) setting in [Image Capture Settings] of the [A Rec. Mode 1] 
menu.
“xxxx” indicates the file number, and is displayed as a four-digit sequential 
number.
For sRGB, you can change [IMGP] (4 characters) to the desired characters.
For AdobeRGB, of the 4 characters you selected, the first 3 are assigned 
in place of [IMG].
Example:  When set to [ABCDxxxx.JPG], files are named 
[_ABCxxxx.JPG] for AdobeRGB.
