Changing the File Number Assignment

Images you shoot are automatically assigned file numbers in the order they were taken, from 0001 – 9999, and saved to folders of up to 2,000 images. You can change the file number assignment.

Select [File Numbering], then press the qr buttons to select an option.

 

Even if you shoot using a new

 

memory card, the file numbers are

Continuous

assigned consecutively until an

 

image with the number 9999 is

 

taken/saved.

 

If you replace the memory card

Auto Reset

with a new one, file numbering

 

begins with 0001 again.

If you use a memory card already containing images, the newly assigned file numbers may continue the existing numbering for both the [Continuous] and [Auto Reset] settings. If you want to start over with file number 0001, format the memory card before use (pp. 22, 52).

Refer to the Software Starter Guide for information regarding folder structure or image types.
