On the memory card, folder names are preceded by a three-digit folder number assigned 
automatically by the camera (e.g., 100D5300). Each folder can contain up to 999 
photographs. During shooting, pictures are stored in the highest-numbered folder with the 
selected name. If a photograph is taken when the current folder is full or contains a 
photograph numbered 9999, the camera will create a new folder by adding 1 to the current 
folder number (e.g., 101D5300). The camera treats folders with the same name but different 
folder numbers as the same folder. For example, if the folder NIKON is selected for Storage 
folder, photographs in all folders named NIKON (100NIKON, 101NIKON, 102NIKON, etc.) will 
be visible when Current is selected for Playback folder (

0 175). Renaming changes all 

folders with the same name but leaves the folder numbers intact. Selecting Delete deletes 
empty numbered folders but leaves other folders with the same name intact.
