About simultaneously recorded RAW and JPEG images
  • A couple of RAW (NEF or NRW format) and JPEG images that were simultaneously recorded when shooting are displayed as one thumbnail. When the image is transferred to a computer, both the RAW and JPEG copies are included.
  • Note that if the [RAW Slot 1 – JPEG Slot 2] option is selected in a camera with two or more memory card slots, RAW and JPEG images are recorded separately and shown as separate thumbnails.
  • RAW and JPEG images that are simultaneously recorded when shooting show respective thumbnails as individual files if they are named differently.
Smart Photo Selector images
  • Smart Photo Selector images are represented by the thumbnail of the key image of each group and transferred as a group of five images. Those simultaneously recorded in RAW (NEF) and JPEG formats are transferred as a group of ten images.
Images with voice memo taken with COOLPIX S30/S31/S32/S33
With COOLPIX S30/S31/S32/S33, two types of voice memo can be assigned to each still image.
When transferring with Nikon Transfer 2, the two types of voice memo are automatically converted into a single file. The file names are changed after transfer, as indicated below.
  • Before transfer
  • Still image: DSCNXXXX.JPG
  • Voice memo 1: DSCAXXXX.WAV
  • Voice memo 2: DSCBXXXX.WAV
  • After transfer
  • Still image: DSCNXXXX.JPG
  • Voice memo: DSCNXXXX.WAV
If only voice memo 1 (DSCAXXXX.WAV) is assigned to an image, the file name is converted to DSCNXXXX.WAV.
