File Numbering System

The pictures you take are automatically assigned file numbers from 0001 to 9900 and stored in folders of 100 images each. Each folder on the CF card is numbered from 100 to 998. Automatic file numbering can be either by continuous numbering or auto reset numbering (the default setting is continuous numbering):

(1) Continuous:

Numbering is continuous between cards, so that the first file number assigned on a new CF card is one more than the last file number assigned on the previous CF card.

(2) Auto reset:

Each time you insert a new CF card, the file number resets to its default value (Img_0001). If the card already contains files, the next available number is assigned.

3 images are recorded on the CF card

Because continuous numbering avoids duplication of image file numbers, this setting is convenient for processing images on computers.
