Abstract
The specification discloses a method and related system for naming files in which digital images are kept in digital camera equipment. More particularly, the specification discloses that file names for images and video captured by digital camera equipment are assigned by the user by speaking the file name into a microphone of the digital camera. A digital signal processor within the camera reads the spoken file name, and using voice recognition software, converts the spoken word or words into corresponding word or words within the system. The captured image or images are then saved using the file name assigned by the user.
