Highlight [] and press 2 to display the [] dialog.

Folders in the [] dialog are shown by W if empty, by Y if full (containing either 5000 pictures or a picture numbered 9999), or by X if partially full. A Y icon indicates that no further pictures can be stored in the folder.

When the current folder number reaches 999, the camera will no longer be able to create new folders and the shutter release will be disabled if:
-
the current folder contains 5000 pictures (in addition, video recording will be disabled if the camera calculates that the number of files needed to record a video of the maximum length would result in the folder containing over 5000 files), or
-
the current folder contains a picture numbered 9999 (in addition, video recording will be disabled if the camera calculates that the number of files needed to record a video of the maximum length would result in a file numbered over 9999).
-
-
If there is space on the memory card, you will nevertheless be able to continue shooting by:
-
creating a folder with a number less than 999 and selecting it as the storage folder, or
-
changing the options selected for [] or [] before recording videos.
-
Additional time may be required for camera startup if the memory card contains a very large number of files or folders.
