Resetting the File Number
You can select the way file numbers are assigned.
See Selecting Menus and Settings (p. 38).
Use the
or
button to select [On] or
[Off].
The display will return to the Rec. screen.
Setting the File No. Reset to [Off] is useful for avoiding file
name duplication when images are downloaded to a
computer.
• About File and Folder Numbers
Images are assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900, and
folders are assigned folder numbers from 100 to 998
(Folder numbers cannot contain 99 in the last two digits).
• Folder File Capacity
Each folder usually contains up to 100 images. However,
since images shot in
and are always saved into the
same folder, a folder may contain more than 100 images.
The number of images may also exceed 100 if a folder
contains images copied from a computer or images shot
with other cameras. Please note, however, that the images
in folders containing 2001 or more images cannot be
replayed in this camera.
The file number is reset to the start (100-0001) each time a new CF
card is inserted. New images recorded on CF cards with existing files
are assigned the next available number.
The file number of the last image to be shot is memorized so that
images recorded to a new CF card start from the next number.
