This resets the file numbering to XXX-0001whenever you use a new folder to store images you capture or whenever you replace the CF card with a new one. Thus, the images in each folder will start from file number 0001. For example, you can create a folder for each day of shooting and see how many images you shot each day. Note that if you change to a folder or CF card which already contains images, the file number of subsequent images will start after the last file number that the folder or CF card already contains.
