Locating Pictures on the Camera

The DC290 camera uses a root level System folder (/SYSTEM can contain camera scripts, camera applications, and logos), a root level DC290_xx folder, and the following
folder types:

  • Album folders are found only in the DC290 folder and are available to help you organize your pictures on the camera memory card. Album folders should not be named using the TL or BR prefix.
  • Time-lapse folders are found in the DC290 folder or in Album folders and are identified by the prefix TL. Time-lapse folders are created by the camera and contain pictures previously taken in a time-lapse series.
    Time-lapse folders are named TLXXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the last six characters in the name of the first picture in the series when the folder is created.
  • Burst folders are found in the DC290 folder or in Album folders and are identified with the prefix BR. Burst folders are created by the camera and contain pictures previously taken in a burst series. Burst folders are named BRXXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the last six characters in the name of the first picture in the series when the folder is created.

    Other folders in the DC290 folder are assumed to be Album folders.

The following describes the DC290 folder:

  • The root level folder is named \DC290_xx, where xx can be 01, 02, or 03, etc., depending on the number of different DC290 cameras you use with one camera memory card. If this is the first time using the memory card, then the camera creates a Camera Image folder named \DC290_01. A \DC290_02 folder is created only if you use the memory card in a different DC290 camera.
  • The root level DC290 folder contains a file named FTIFOLD.INF. This is a camera system file and should not be deleted.
  • All pictures taken with the DC290 camera are stored in the \DC290_xx folder, or in an Album, a Time-lapse folder, or a Burst folder.

The distinction between folder types is only visible when reviewing your pictures using the camera LCD or video-out capabilities. When browsing the memory card using host software supplied by Kodak or a card reader, the distinction between folder types is lost.
