Working with the image archive

General

When you save an image or video clip, the camera stores the image/video file in the image archive on the memory card. You can open an image in the image archive and, for example, select another image mode, apply color alarms, and add measurement tools. You can also open and play saved video clips.

In the camera, the image archive is called Gallery. The Gallery can include one or several folders. New images and video clips will be saved to the active folder, at the top of the Gallery.
