Naming Pictures
Pictures taken using the DC290 camera are named P0XXXXXX.JPG or
P0XXXXXX.TIF, where XXXXXX represents the picture number. Pictures are
numbered in the order in which they are taken. Picture naming conflicts can
occur when taking pictures if you move picture files between camera folders. The
camera handles conflicts by changing the prefix of the current picture from P0
to EX.

Picture Naming Using Absolute Numbering

The camera uses consecutive numbers for all subsequent pictures, even if
you transfer pictures to the computer or delete pictures from the camera
memory card. For example, if the last picture taken was P0000007.JPG,
the next picture is P0000008.JPG, even if P0000007.JPG was deleted
prior to taking P0000008.JPG.

If you insert a different memory card into your DC290 camera, the next
picture number is derived using the camera picture number and is not
dependent on the picture number of any of the pictures currently on the
memory card.

Picture Naming Using Relative Numbering
Camera scripting provides the capability to select a relative numbering scheme,
in which the picture number for the next picture is dependent on the last picture
currently in that camera’s DC290 folder or any subfolders of the current DC290
folder on the inserted camera memory card. This number is determined when the
camera is turned on or when the card is inserted into the camera.
