Canon MV4i MC instruction manual 101, File numbers

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 (the folder name is “100canon”).

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

E

1CONTINUOUS

Numbering is continuous between cards, so that the first file number assigned on a new memory card is 1 more than the last file number assigned on the previous memory card. When the file numbers are set to CONTINUOUS, each image taken is assigned a different number, avoiding duplication of numbers. This is convenient when you want to manage your images on a PC. We recommend keeping the file numbers set to CONTINUOUS.

Three images are recorded on the card.

Each time you insert a new memory card, the file number resets to its default value (101-0101). If the card already contains files, the next available number is assigned.
