File numbers

The images you take are automatically assigned file numbers from 0101-9900 and stored in folders of 100 images each. Each folder is numbered from 101 to 998 and recorded on the memory card. Sample images have been pre-recorded on the supplied SD Memory Card, entering folder number 100 (folder name is “100 canon”).

Set the image file numbers so that they reset each time a new memory card is inserted, or so that they count up continuously.
