Handy Features

[Auto reset]: Resets the file numbering to 0001 whenever the card is replaced.

Each time you replace the card, the file numbering restarts from 0001. This is convenient if you want to organize images according to cards.

However, if the replacement card contains images recorded previously, the file numbering of the new images might continue from the file numbering of the existing images in the card. To restart the file numbering from 0001, you should use a newly-formatted card.

[Manual reset]: You can reset the file numbering to 0001 at any time or for a new folder.

When you reset the file numbering manually, a new folder is created automatically and the file numbering of images saved to that folder starts from 0001. This is convenient when you want to use different folders for the images taken yesterday and the ones taken today, for example. After the manual reset, the file numbering returns to continuous or auto reset.

If folder No. 999 is created, [Folder number full] will appear on the LCD monitor. If that folder contains images reaching file number 9999, shooting will not be possible even if the card still has storage capacity. The LCD monitor will display a message to replace the card. Replace with a new card.

For both JPEG and RAW images, the file name will start with “IMG_”. The extension will be “.JPG” for JPEG images and “.CR2” for RAW images.
