The file number is like the frame number on a roll of film. The captured
images are assigned a sequential file number from 0001 to 9999 and
saved in one folder. You can change how the file number is assigned.
The file number will appear on the personal computer in this format:
IMG_0001.JPG.
Under the [5] tab, select [File
numbering], then press <0>. Follow
the steps below to select a file
numbering method, then press <0>.
[Continuous]: The file numbering continues in sequence even
after the card is replaced.
Even after you replace the card, the file numbering continues in
sequence up to 9999. This is convenient when you want to save the
images numbered anywhere between 0001 to 9999 in one folder in
your personal computer.
However, if the replacement card contains images recorded
previously, the file numbering of the new images might continue from
the file numbering of the existing images in the card. If you want to
use continuous file numbering, you should use a newly-formatted
card each time.
