Seq. Numbers

In order to avoid taking multiple pictures with the same file name (for example DSC0001.JPG), it is possible to allocate sequential numbers that are automatically assigned to image files. This feature can be used even when more than one CF memory card is used. This makes it easier for you to manage your files when you are downloading them to a computer as each file has a unique name.

Image file numbers and folder numbers

Four-digit numbers are assigned to image files recorded with the Nikon COOLPIX995, and file names from DSCN0001.JPG to DSCN9999.JPG are assigned to the files. Three-digit numbers are assigned to the folders in which these image files are to be saved. Since numbers 0001 to 9999 are automatically assigned to image files in each folder, it is possible for duplicate file names to exist when a large number of folders or CF memory cards are being used. When the Sequential Numbers setting is enabled, image file numbers are assigned sequentially even when you switch folders or CF memory cards, ensuring that image files are not created with duplicate numbers. This makes it easier for you to manage your files in situations such as when you are downloading all your files to a computer.

Check point

When an image file number is greater than 9999 or the current folder contains more than 999 images, a new folder with a number one greater than the current folder is automatically created. Sequential numbers from 0001 are assigned to added image files.
