The “Camera files” dialog allows you to save data in the camera, such as calibration data or customer-specific information. The data is stored on the camera even if the camera is disconnected from power supply. The size and number of data depends on the firmware version. You can save your own data for example under "UserData1" or "UserData2". The "CriticalEventLog" can only be read. This is a read-only file that the camera automatically creates when a critical error occurs.

Click on to open the dialog.
